What we can tell you about the DRCongo

We've scoured the internet to find information about what's happening in the DRC after the election and disagreement about the outcome.  There's not much news, and that may be a good thing for the Congolese people.  Is it possible that the two main candidates who are contesting the election would prefer to resolve their dispute without violence?  We can only hope, and wait and watch.

This article, from the Christian Science Monitor, sums up the situation right now.

These are great photos from the Sacramento Bee of the few days after the elction.

There's also movement by the third place candidate, Vital Kamerhe, to use the court system to annul the vote. More on that aspect of things at AllAfrica.com

What do you think about the elections?  Valid?  Do-over?  Can they make something from this; some kind of coalition government?  We'd love to hear your thoughts.
