Taliban attacks have also claimed at least four lives and wounded eight others in the northern Kunduz city and wounded 15 others in the southern Kandahar city on Saturday.
The militants' attacks and possible fraud have remained top concerns of the voters.
"I don't like to be killed in a suicide attack or bombing at a polling center for voting. I want to remain alive and continue my education to serve my country in future," said a university student Bushra Parnian, 20, in talks with Xinhua.
Fearing possible fraud in the voting process, many voters have complained that the biometric devices in some polling centers were out of order which undermines the polling transparency.
"I went to a polling center in Aziz Afghan Secondary School in Kabul Police District 10 and voted for my favorite candidate with the hope that my single vote could bring positive change in my life," a Kabul resident, Hamidullah Nayel, told Xinhua.
However, he expressed doubt over the fairness of the voting process, saying, "If the fraud-marred 2017 presidential election repeated, the country may plunge to crisis."
Afghanistan's previous presidential election was held in April 2017 but months' delay in announcing the result almost took the country to the edge of civil war and finally led to formation of National Unity Government with the mediation of former U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.
The election body's chief Nuristani has dismissed all security problems and possible fraud for Saturday's voting, saying all necessary measures have been taken to provide security for the voters and ensure transparency in the polls.
