President Mugabe and Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai are today expected to finalise the appointment of a new Zimbabwe Electoral Commission chairperson following the resignation of Justice Simpson Mutambanengwe last week with names of those likely to take over being bandied around.

According to sources, front runners for the job include former judges Moses Chinhengo and Wilson Sandura, as well as ex-Zimbabwe Human Rights Commission chairperson Reginald Austin.

However, some of the likely candidates were said to have been rejected by both Zanu-PF and the MDC-T for their perceived "political inclinations" and it remains to be seen who Mugabe and Tsvangirai will settle for.
