Voting has officially begun in Uganda's presidential and parliamentary elections, but voters are facing long lines and delayed openings at some polling stations Thursday because of late ballot deliveries.

After delays in some locations in the capital, Kampala, the Ugandan electoral commission released a statement saying "polling has started on time in various parts of the country," but noting delays in parts of the capital and in Wakiso District. The statement said the commission expresses its regrets for the late delivery of polling materials to those locations.

Makerere University education student Ivan Ssebuliba said "If this is happening in Kampala, so close to the Electoral Commission, what is going on in the villages?"

Voters who had arrived early were forced to stand and wait in long lines in the heat, leaving them frustrated and irritable. But the electoral commission has assured voters that all who are in line by 4pm will be allowed to cast their ballots.

One man told VOA's Jill Craig "We shall vote tomorrow I think."

Some polling stations still remained closed as long as four hours after voting was scheduled to start, causing a confrontation between would-be voters and heavily-armored military police in the suburb of Kyabando Erisa.
