HARARE – The under-fire Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) has cut President-elect Emmerson Mnangagwa’s win by a marginal 0,1 percent, but insists the error was purely clerical.A fortnight ago, Zec declared Mnangagwa as the winner of a congested presidential race in which 23 candidates took part, including Nelson Chamisa of the main MDC Alliance.At the time, Zec said the Zanu PF presidential candidate had garnered 50,8 percent of the vote, with Chamisa trailing him at 44,3 percent.In a new twist to developments around the poll dispute between Zec and Chamisa, Priscilla Chigumba, who chairs the commission, has now reduced Mnangagwa’s win to 50,6 percent.In her response to Chamisa, who is challenging Mnangagwa’s win at the Constitutional Court (Con-Court), Chigumba said the corrections alter the MDC Alliance leader’s result to 44,39.She said even if the corrections were made, the opposition leader cannot overtake Mnangagwa.“After the correction of the observed errors, the results that Nelson Chamisa gained 4 483 voters representing a change of 0,1 percent of the announced results, whilst Emmerson Mnangagwa’s votes reduced by 4 453 votes representing a change of 0,08 percent of the announced results,” Chigumba said in court papers.“Overall, the final computations do not alter significantly the announced 2018 presidential results,” she added.Chigumba said any mathematical errors that may have occurred in the process were neither gross nor sufficient to overturn the outcome of the presidential election and thus cannot ground the vacation of the declaration she made in terms of a section the Electoral Act.She concedes, however, that some polling stations were counted twice.The development has left Zec with egg on the face and its credibility in question.In his petition, Chamisa claims that he won the polls by 60 percent.He cites several mathematical inconsistencies he says if corrected would reduce Mnangagwa’s vote to below 50 percent.To overturn Mnangagwa’s victory and trigger a presidential election run-off, Chamisa would need to knock off at least six percent of the vote that the Zanu PF leader currently has.Chamisa has put together a team of lawyers to argue his case in the Con-Court next week on Wednesda
