The result will likely be scrutinised after election observers from the European Union and African Union raised questions.
Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa has been re-elected for a second and final term as results were announced much earlier than expected following a troubled vote in the southern African country.
Mr Mnangagwa won 52.6% of the vote, the Zimbabwe Election Commission said at a late-night announcement in the capital, Harare. Main opposition leader Nelson Chamisa won 44% of the vote, the commission said. Results of the presidential election had been set down for Monday but came just two days after the ballots closed, much sooner than expected.
The result keeps the ruling Zanu-PF party in the presidency. Zanu-PF has been in government for 43 years since Zimbabwe won independence from white minority rule in 1980.
