Georgian opposition disputes poll

President Mikhail Saakashvili's party scored a landslide victory, but the opposition claims the vote was rigged and is demanding new elections. Their march through the capital came after the president marked independence day with a military parade. He also commented on a United Nations report that backed Georgia's claims that Russia shot down a Georgian spy plane over Georgia last month - a charge Russia denies.
