By Own Correspondent| The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) has released the final copy of the electronic voter’s roll revealing the prices for one to obtain a copy.
Addressing journalists at ZEC offices in Harare today (Friday), Justice Priscilla Chigumba said those contesting the elections would get the voters roll free of charge according to electoral guidelines.
She however said anyone else wanting a copy of the electronic Voter’s Roll would have to folk out between $2 and $20 depending on their specifications.
“The voters roll will be sold at the following prices for those that need it: $2 for Ward based voters roll, $10 for constituency based voters roll and $20 for the National voters roll,” she said, adding that a hard copy of the roll would cost 10 cents per page.
She however said since ZEC had not yet printed the hard copy of the roll, she did not know as yet the total cost of the National Voter’s Roll.
The ZEC revealed that a total of 5 681 604 registered voters are on the final voters roll while at least 100 000 are on the exclusion list.
“The people on the exclusion list include those who died and those whose identity documents were deemed invalid by the Registered General among others,” said Justice Chigumba.
She gave an electronic copy of the voter’s roll to a first time voter (18 year old Kelly Gaston from Mabvuku) and a representative of people living with disability, Bruce Nyoni.
