IEC Chairman Fazl Ahmad Manawi said results in volatile Ghazni province southwest of Kabul had still to be determined. The other 33 provinces plus one seat for Kuchi nomads would be announced, he said.

Despite widespread complaints of fraud, Manawi ruled out staging another poll. "We are not planning to hold another election in any place," Manawi told a news conference.
