The <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">Zimbabwe Electoral</a> Commission (ZEC) has released a fact sheet detailing the application process for indelible ink during voting. According to a statement seen by <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">Pindula News</a>, the following procedures will be in place on voting day:
Upon arrival at the polling station, election officials will inspect voters for any signs of previous voting by checking for indelible ink markings on their left-hand small fingers. If a voter’s fingernails appear soiled, stained, or have polish on them, they will be cleaned using acetone and cotton wool before being marked with <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">indelible ink</a> on the small finger of the left hand.
In case a voter has a physical handicap that prevents <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">ink marking</a> on their small left finger, the next finger in the sequence will be used. The application of indelible ink is a critical process in ensuring the integrity of elections, and the ZEC is committed to protecting the credibility of the voting process. Reads the statement:
<blockquote>
