- - ZESN urges ZEC to ensure that that the Code of Conduct is adhered to. This assists in safeguarding the secrecy of the vote, and protecting voters especially those allocated to polling stations with voting populations of 100 people and below, who may suffer political retribution after the elections. ZEC should intensify voter education, ahead of the elections to ensure participation of citizens ZESN calls on political parties to step up their efforts to recruit agents to monitor all key electoral processes including polling day. Deployment and logistics should be properly planned, missing materials and equipment during inspection points to inadequacies in planning ZEC should ensure that inspection centres and polling station are accessible to persons with disabilities. Methodology ZESN has 210 LTOs deployed in all constituencies around Zimbabwe since mid-May 2018. Observers received relevant training. ZESN LTOs visited up to 6 ICs each, during the 11-day voters’ roll inspection period from 19 to 29 May 2018. The LTOs were instructed to observe centres spanning across different urban, peri-urban, rural and remote locations in a ratio roughly determined by the population distribution in their respective constituencies. If an IC was subdivided into more than one Polling Station (PS) the observers were required to complete a checklist of each PS observed (see Annex 1).
