zeros of an infinite series
$begingroup$
Let $sum_{j=1}^{infty}a_{j}$ be a convergent series of positive numbers and ${z_{j}}_{j=1}^infty$ a closed discrete subset of the open unit disc $mathbb{D}$. Then $h(z):=sum_{j=1}^{infty}frac{a_{j}}{z-z_{j}}$ is a meromorphic function on $mathbb{D}$.
The question is: If we only consider the case of infinite sum, does $h(z)=sum_{j=1}^{infty}frac{a_{j}}{z-z_{j}}$ always have infinitely many zeros on $mathbb{D}$? Note that $h$ never vanishes outside $mathbb{D}$.
This question comes from the following paper (Example 1.1 and Question 3.3). Any comment is welcome.

This was conjectured by J. Borcea, and a counterexample was constructed by J. Langley:
MR2317957
Langley, J. K.
Equilibrium points of logarithmic potentials on convex domains,
Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 135 (2007), no. 9, 2821–2826.
His counterexample has an additional property that $z_k$ tend to a limit on the unit circle.
However, the is true under some additional conditions imposed on $z_k$.
Notice that a similar question in the plane (under the assumptions $z_ktoinfty$, and
$$sum_k a_k/|z_k|<infty,$$
$f$ is meromorphic in the plane) is unsolved, despite a lot of research on this question.
