Congo Polls Open After Weekend Of Violence

Voting began Monday with delays and setbacks in this massive nation pummeled by war for an election that could further consolidate the country’s peace or drag Congo back into conflict.

Over the weekend, police lobbed tear gas at protesters. Opposition leaders and country experts had urged the government to delay the vote due to massive logistical problems, including the late delivery of voting materials, but the election proceeded anyway.
