A Tanzanian woman casts her ballot for the Tanzanian presidential elections as others queue at a polling station on 25 October 2015 in Zanzibar.
Seven Tanzanian government ministers have lost their parliamentary seats to the opposition Ukawa coalition, partial results from Sunday's vote show.
It is the biggest shock of the election so far which is the most competitive in the country's history.
The BBC's Muliro Telewa in the main city Dar es Salaam says the news will worry the governing CCM party that has been in power for 54 years.
The electoral commission has until Thursday to announce the final results.
Observers from the European Union have given a positive assessment of the polls.
But they raised several concerns - including the apparent failure of state media to give fair and equitable coverage to the opposition in the build-up to the election.
