Mozambique: Again, CNE Has More Registration Brigades in Frelimo zones

Placement of registration brigades has been published, and again there will be more teams in Frelimo areas than in Renamo ones, making it harder for Renamo voters to register. We compared provinces with a similar population density. Nampula and Maputo province have a similar high population density, yet in Nampula every brigade must try to register 4214 people, while in Maputo province each brigade has only 2717 potential voters.

Niassa and Gaza are similar low density provinces, but in Niassa teams must try to register 3493 people, while in Gaza their target is less than half that, 1507 potential voters.

The table shows all provinces. The full list of registration location and brigades is on https://bit.ly/Moz-El-rec-postos.

Registration starts on 15 March, only a week away. But in the north heavy rains continue and there is still flooding, reports the Ministério das Obras Públicas in their daily flood report (https://bit.ly/Moz-Flood-2024).  Many dirt road will be impassable for several weeks to come, which will delay registration in rural areas.
