Bolivia's President Evo Morales has claimed victory and a third term in office after presidential elections.

玻利维亚总统大选之后，总统埃沃·莫拉莱斯宣布竞选成功，即将开始第三任期。

Evo Morales greeted supporters from the balcony of the presidential palace

"This win is a triumph for anti-imperialists and anti-colonialists," he told cheering supporters at the presidential palace in La Paz.

Exit polls show him on 60%, well ahead of his rivals, as votes are counted.

To avoid a run-off, Mr Morales must win 50% of valid¹ votes, or 40% if that includes a 10-point lead over his nearest rival.

Mr Morales has overseen² strong economic growth since taking office in 2006 and has been widely tipped to win.

He has presided over a a period of economic growth and reduced poverty, using Bolivia's commodity wealth to reduce poverty levels.

But he has been criticised for failing to halt corruption³.

Mr Morales's party, the Movement Toward Socialism, is also expected to make gains and win a strong majority in Congress.

The poll passed without major incident, according to the electoral authorities and foreign observers.
