KINSHASA (Reuters) - The head of Democratic Republic of Congo's election commission on Friday said it would meet a Dec. 31 deadline for the release of full provisional presidential results, dismissing opposition calls for a re-run of the disputed vote as the response of "bad losers."
The CENI commission has come under fire for its handling of the delay-plagued Dec. 20 presidential and legislative elections and the vote-count, which the opposition and independent observers say have compromised the credibility of results.
