People in Zimbabwe are voting in an election that will decide whether President Robert Mugabe, in power since 1980, wins a sixth term in office.
His challengers are Morgan Tsvangirai of the MDC party and ex-finance minister and independent Simba Makoni.
Queues formed early, but many voters have complained of not being allowed to cast their ballots. The MDC fears the poll will be rigged but Mr Mugabe said as he cast his vote in Harare: "We don't rig elections."

Hopefully the government will collapse fairly soon as the countrys economy is in meltdown due to him. He is an evil racist man and I want to see him lose power, sadly it looks like he will rig elections - again.
Africa just cannot govern itself.

I agree completely.

They need to just not let him be the president.

Although it won't happen

He's a dictator more or less, so elections are more then likely going to be fixed.

I'm pretty sure he put a polling station with 2000 registered "voters" in the middle of nowhere with some fields.

We won't do anything, we are busy taking over the middle east. Africa has no economic value we need to take.

I laughed at the cartoon in the times today, it had a ballot paper saying

"R.Mugabe"
"Mr Mugabe"
"Robert M"
"Robert Mugabe"

as the options. We all know these elctions will be rigged as always, hopefully the old ******* will die soon

I hate this guy. They need to get him out and put someone in charge who can actually do the job

he's 83 maybe he will die soon

Yeah I can see the EUs attitude already 'I have an idea, lets extend it to Africa and let them join!'

Europe just isn't what it used to be, Israel is in Eurovision and the European football cup, so is countries like Kazakhstan and Turkey (Only about 15% of the country is in Europe). If Israel think they're in Europe, then in geographical terms that means Turkey, Iraq and Syria are also in Europe.

Nah Mugabe has just destroyed Zimbabwe, they used to be a group of countries including Zimbabwe in the past and they where reasonably civilised and rich countries, since they split up into countries like Zimbabwe they've turned into what the rest of Africa is like, full of poverty...
