In the parliamentary election, where candidates were vying for 529 seats, at least 18 ministers from the ruling party lost their seats, Ugandan media reported. The country’s vice-president, Edward Ssekandi, also lost his race.

With results still coming in, local media reported that 56 candidates from Wine’s National Unity Platform (NUP) had won their races.

I would suggest that certain parallels could be drawn with recent elections in a Western country, but that might draw repercussions from said country’s security forces.

Does anyone know the whereabouts of Ruby Freeman during the vote counting in Uganda?

The 76-year-old Museveni, in power since 1986 and one of Africa’s longest-serving leaders, dismissed the allegations of fraud in an evening address to the nation, saying Thursday’s election may turn out to be the “most cheating free” in Uganda’s history.

Oh, gee, this all sounds so familiar.

PING!

“...Bobi Wine denounced the results as fraudulent and urged citizens to reject them.”

Dominion sure gets around.

I give him credit for this quote, which no doubt drives the Left insane:

"African chiefs were the ones waging war on each other and capturing their own people and selling them. If anyone should apologize (for slavery) it should be the African chiefs. We still have those traitors here even today." -- Yoweri Museveni, President of Uganda, 1998

“It’s an election that was taken over by the military and the police,”

So when Democrat thugs blockade and cover the windows of vote counting centers and prevent observers from the opposing party from monitoring in Georgia and other places, maybe we should call the National Guard too. A third world election needs third world measures.

Yoweri Biden won in two countries the same way. It will become the 51st state in the Uganda States of Amerika.

“The United States and an African election monitoring group complained of election irregularities.”
