The six polling stations set up in Zimbabwe so that Mozambicans resident in that country could vote in Wednesday's general election returned a crushing victory for the ruling Frelimo Party and its presidential candidate, the incumbent, Armando Guebuza.

Interesting that the HERALD reported that Mozambiquens are voting in Zimbabwe for their President, but does not mention that Zimbabweans abroad should be given the same opportunity to vote also. South Africa also allows their voters to voter outside of their country.
Some good old fashioned courage from the HERALD and all of Zimbabwe could go a long way in creating real democracy in Zimbabwe. The HERALD should have taken a courageous stand, by demanding that the Zimbabwean gov't do the same! Congratulation Mozambique for continuing to improve your democracy!
Phiri I am convinced you have multiple personalities. Your response right now made good reading and good sense.
Isnt it Funny that Zimbabwe is the only country that has not had free and fair elections in Sothern Africa. Mozambicians are allowed to vote from Zimbabwe. Yet the same SADC leaders are the ones that condone Mugabes Behavior and allow him to inflict violence on ordinary Zimbabweans who are tired of his pointless rule.
