DAKAR, March 1 (Reuters) - Senegalese President Abdoulaye Wade has won re-election for a second term with more than half of the votes cast in Sunday's election, the West African country's electoral authorities said on Thursday.

The results, which confirm rough figures issued this week by government sources, must still be reviewed and confirmed by the Constitutional Council. Opposition parties say they have evidence of fraud and will challenge Wade's victory.
