10:37Now PlayingVoting is continuing in Zimbabwe's general election for another day. Authorities extended the poll in some areas because of delays which left people waiting for up to 10 hours to cast their ballot.
Some polling stations lacked ballot papers and failed to open on time. Others had not received papers by 7pm, when voting was scheduled to end. The main opposition party accused the government of rigging and voter suppression. Many of the delays were in the capital Harare, where opposition support is usually strongest.
Zimbabweans are electing thier president, Parliament and local councillors. It is only the second general election since the death of Robert Mugabe who dominated politics in Zimbabwe for decades.
