From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission says it will conduct a full recount of the presidential and parliamentary voting on April 19, the Zimbabwean state-run Sunday Mail newspaper reports.
Commission chairman George Chiweshe says President Robert Mugabe's party had demanded a recount.
Independent tallies indicate Mr Mugabe lost, but garnered enough votes to force a run-off. Opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai says he won outright.
Mr Tsvangirai is meanwhile attending a regional leaders' meeting in Zambia to discuss the deepening crisis over the country's contentious elections.
Mr Mugabe has stayed away from the meeting.
