Tanzania goes to vote in elections set to keep the same party in power for 7 decades

Tanzania's governing party has been in charge for 64 years, for much of that time without any serious opposition. Although Tanzania is a multiparty democracy, a version of one party — Hassan's Chama cha Mapinduzi, or Party of the Revolution — has been in power since the country's independence from Britain in 1961. The country, with annual per capita income of roughly $1,200, is an outlier in a region where liberation parties have been going out of fashion and young people fill the ranks of feisty opposition groups seeking political change.
