Brazilians reelect Dilma Rousseff as President

Dilma Rousseff has been re-elected president of Brazil, after securing more than 51% of votes in the closest election race in years.
An official count showed her rival, centrist candidate Aecio Neves, taking just over 48% of the vote. In her victory speech, Ms Rousseff said she wants to be a better president than she was.
She faced protests last year against corruption, record spending on the football World Cup and poor services. Ms Rousseff, who has been in power since 2010, is popular with poor Brazilians thanks to her government's welfare programs.
