Outgoing PM Morgan Tsvangirai has said he won the election with a landslide, adding the only solution to the current crisis was to have another election.
In an address to Provincial Council delegates at Queens Hall in Mutare on Friday, Tsvangirai said real legitimacy of the election will come from the people of Zimbabwe.
The former trade unionist said Mugabe can rig an election but he cannot rig the economy.
He said he will not betray the struggle of Zimbabweans to have democracy. The MDC leader said everyone was hopeful for change but were disappointed.
He said there was mass disenfranchisement through the voters' roll, displacement of voters names, busing of people, use of fake ink, a chaotic special vote and some alleged police officers were given more ballot papers in a case of duplicate balloting.
