Liberia's Sirleaf wins re-election

Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Africa's first female president, handily won re-election Nov. 10 with 90.2 percent of the vote in a runoff election, but her victory has been rendered hollow and her government may struggle to prove its legitimacy because the opposition boycotted the poll. Hours before the results were announced in an election that was supposed to solidify Liberia's shaky peace, opposition leader Winston Tubman said he will not accept the outcome of the runoff. (AP)
