During door-to-door visits in the Entumbane suburb of Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, Juliet Rusafeti (left) explains to Jane Mlambo how to fill out a proof-of-residence form needed for the biometric voter-registration process. The biometric system, launched in the nation in September, stores a person's fingerprints and facial image on a computer for positive identification on election day. Rusafeti belongs to National Youth Development Trust, an organization working with the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission to encourage Entumbane residents to register to vote. The government extended the deadline for registration from Dec. 20 to Feb. 8.
