ZEC ready for elections

Observers have also said conditions are conducive for the holding of elections.
President Mugabe last week indicated that a referendum for a new constitution will be held in the first quarter of next year while elections would follow by mid-next year.

In an interview on Monday, acting Zimbabwe Electoral Commission chairperson Mrs Joyce Kazembe said ZEC would have no problems conducting the polls.
“Our mandate is to implement Presidential proclamations as and when they are made. If a proclamation is made, we implement it,” she said.

Mrs Kazembe refused to discuss details concerning resources needed to conduct national elections saying that would not matter because ZEC would be bound to implement any Presidential proclamation.
Registrar-General Mr Tobaiwa Mudede could not be reached for comment yesterday on the status of the voters’ roll, but officials in his office said everything was in place.
