Results by constituency

Parliamentary elections were held in Zimbabwe on 24 and 25 June 2000 to elect members of the House of Assembly. The electoral system involved 120 constituencies returning one member each, elected by the first-past-the-post system, with the president nominating 20 members and ten tribal chiefs sitting ex officio. This was the first national election in which Zimbabwe's ruling ZANU–PF party had faced any real opposition since the 1980s, with the newly formed Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) challenging their control of parliament.

Contents

ZANU–PF won 62 seats with 48% of the popular vote, [1] while the MDC won 57 of the 120 elected seats with 47% of the popular vote. [1]

According to international observers, the elections were marred by extensive electoral fraud and intimidation of voters. [1] [2] Political violence increased during the month of June, resulting in thousands of unsolved murders and abductions. [1] [2]
