Sata ran for President for a fourth time in the election held on 20 September 2011. In the early stages of the campaign he was more vitriolic in his [[Sinophobia|anti-Chinese]] rhetoric, but he later toned down his rhetoric. Results showed him receiving about 43% of the vote against 36% for Banda, and Chief Justice [[Ernest Sakala]] accordingly declared that he had won the election in the early hours of 23 September. He was sworn in later in the day.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://af.reuters.com/article/metalsNews/idAFL5E7KN2JB20110923|title=Zambia's Sata sworn in as new president|publisher=}}</ref> He was said to have won because of the urban vote. Despite the toning down of his rhetoric, the investment climate in Zambia was considered uncertain in the wake of his victory. | Sata ran for President for a fourth time in the election held on 20 September 2011.
