Dilma Rousseff has won a second term as Brazil's president.

According to Aljazeera, Rousseff defeated her opposition rival Aecio Neves with a narrow margin in an election that largely split the country between the poor north and wealthier south.

With more than 99% of votes counted, Rousseff had 51.59% of the vote while opposition candidate Aecio Neves had 48.41%.

Neves has since conceded defeat and called in to congratulate Rousseff.
