HARARE, April 3 (Reuters) - Results from Zimbabwe's senate election, which are due before an announcement on the outcome of the presidential race, have been delayed by logistical problems, the electoral commission said.

"The verification process has been delayed due to logistical problems encountered in some of the senatorial constituencies," said electoral commission spokesman Utoile Silaigwana. Zimbabweans are still waiting to hear who won the vital presidential race five days after the elections.
