Finance Minister and Movement for Democratic Change secretary-general Tendai Biti today said 300 000 people in Harare failed to register as voters yet registrar general Tobaiwa Mudede was allocated an extra US$1 million for the exercise last week. “In Harare only 27 000 voters were registered while 57 000 were registered in Mashonaland West and 60 000 in Mashonaland East. Harare province had only five teams to conduct voter registration while Mashonaland East had 18.” he said. “One striking and mysterious scenario has been that some constituencies in Harare have actually recorded decreases in the number of persons on the voters’ roll. Dzivaresekwa is an example. In 2008 there were 38 000 voters and that number has decreased to 22 000.”
