itemprop=description content=As Mozambicans prepare to cast their ballots in a few days, allAfrica takes a look at how the southern African country's electoral process works. On April 20, voter registration began across the 65 municipalities of the nation in a tense environment marked by numerous inconsistencies up until the process's conclusion on June 3rd. The majority of the issues were reported in areas where voters tend to support the opposing parties. One of the first issues raised concerned the unequal placement of voter registration booths; in places where Frelimo has limited influence, substantially fewer designated registration computers were present. According to a special analysis from the anti-corruption watchdog CIP, the majority of the reported technical registration issues were purposely created by the ruling party in order to prevent opposition party members from registering. Mozambique has a troubled history when it comes to elections. Since 1994, there have been several allegations of vote-rigging, assassinations of opposition and civil society leaders, and other violent incidents that have tainted the electoral process.
