presidential election was 2% or more. These three constituencies account for -3,611 of the decrease in votes or 49.7% of the decrease.

For Mutare North valid votes is 131.1% higher for the presidential election than for the parliamentary election (Presidential 32,099 vs Parliamentary 13,993). Chamisa received 7,896 more votes in the presidential election than MDC Alliance did in the parliamentary election (Presidential 11,858 vs Parliamentary 3,962) while Mnangagwa received 12,406 more votes in presidential election (Presidential 18,917 vs Parliamentary 6,511). Appendix 1 & 2 provide comparisons of ZEC parliamentary results with ZEC Presidential Results by Polling Stations. Appendix 1 provides this information sorted by province and constituency while Appendix 2 provides the same information sorted by percent difference in valid votes. Parliamentary Results Overall, the MDC Alliance won 63 constituency based seats, ZANU-PF 145 constituency based seats, NPF one constituency based seat and an independent candidate won one constituency based seat. In total, there are a net of 14 constituency based seats MDC Alliance would have likely won if they had fielded only one candidate per constituency and if other third party candidates and independents had not stood. Further, there are six constituencies whose parliamentary results are in conflict with the presidential results suggesting that MDC Alliance may have actually won these seats. There are 12 constituencies for which the MDC Alliance fielded two candidates. Despite fielding two candidates, a MDC Alliance candidate won two constituencies based seats (Mabvuku-Tafara constituency in Harare and Goromonzi South constituency in Mashonaland East). There are, however, three constituencies for which the MDC Alliance candidates combined received more votes than the ZANU-PF candidate and MDC Alliance would have likely won these seats if the party had fielded only one candidate (Bulawayo South, in Bulawayo, Goromonzi West constituency in Mashonaland East, and Harare South in Harare). For the other seven constituencies where MDC Alliance fielded two candidates the ZANU-PF candidate received more votes than both MDC Alliance candidates combined. There were no constituencies for which ZANU-PF fielded two candidates. This would have been a net swing of three seats to MDC Alliance from ZANU-PF. There are 22 constituencies that the ZANU-PF candidate won with less than 50% of the vote. Of these there are three for which the MDC Alliance fielded two candidates and, as noted above, the combined votes for the MDC Alliance candidates exceeded the votes for the 14
