1·Last electoral time round, at the end of March 2008, the playing field was so heavily tilted against the MDC that few thought it could win—yet it did so clearly, albeit by a narrow official margin.

在2008年三月末，上次大选时，竞争环境非常倾向民革运以至于有少数人觉得他们会赢，但是民革运做得太明显了，尽管是以微小的官方差额。

2·Yet in a vote in that same city, a proposition to increase funding for schools by raising taxes failed by a narrow margin to win majority approval.

在这个城市的一次投票中，一项用加税来给学校提供资金的动议以微弱劣势未能获得大多数支持。
