Ugandan election results show Yoweri Museveni leading Bobi Wine.

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni holds a strong lead in provisional presidential election results on Thursday, the election agency said.

Results announced Friday morning showed Museveni leading with 76% of the vote, based on 45% of polling stations across the country.

He was followed by opposition leader Bobi Wine with about 20%.

Ugandans voted in a tense national election on Thursday after an often violent campaign in which President Museveni, 81, is seeking a seventh term.
