Abstract

The study provides an in-depth understanding of the transformative effect of information and communication technologies on elections and how they can positively impact electoral integrity in Zimbabwe. The study adopted a qualitative approach where data from primary sources were obtained through interviews (in-depth and key informant interviews) and observations, while secondary data were derived from publications and other documented materials. Conceptual and document analysis were used to analyse the collected data from primary and secondary sources. Findings of the study indicate, among other things, that numerous challenges affect the integrity of the traditional electoral system. The study thus proposes a framework called the electronic voting and digital elections implementation framework, requiring related components and sections of the election process to be collaborated and aligned for electronic voting technologies to be successful and have a lasting positive impact on the integrity of the elections in Zimbabwe.
