ZEC Biometric Voter Registration machines malfunctioning

ZEC Biometric Voter Registration machines malfunctioning

Some Biometric Voter Registration (BVR) machines in Bulawayo have been reported to be malfunctioning with some of the machines failing to indicate some of the polling centre names. This resulted in Zimbabwe Electoral Comission (ZEC) staffers having to manually write the polling centre names on the registration slips.

Some machines are also being affected by technical glitches resulting in them failing to record fingerprints. Former Minister of Education David Coltart revealed that the machine had been failing to record his fingerprints for at least an hour. Coltart tweeted

The glitch seems to have been fixed though and Coltart was able to register.
