'Wait Calmly, Patiently, Peacefully' for Liberia Election Results

Preliminary results of the Liberian presidential elections are showing the top candidates -- President George Weah of the Coalition for Democratic Change and his rival Joseph Boakai of the Unity Party, are pulling way ahead of the other candidates.

If neither of the two frontrunners wins more than 50% of the vote in the first round, a run-off will be held on November 7. The Elections Commission has until October 25 to announce the final result of the polls.
