The Good party has accused the DA in George of rigging votes by reregistering voters.The electoral commission says the by-elections will proceed unless a court orders otherwise.
"We suggest that Good and the ANC not waste any more of the residents' time and let us get back to business. There is work to be done to restore service delivery in these wards that have been waning under Good. He added that parties that were"anxious and scrambling for fault" could air their concerns after the by-elections.
"The core principle of democracy is that legitimate voters get to elect the representative of their choice through a free and fair process. Rigging elections by fraudulently registering voters who don't qualify to vote subverts this principle and disregards the will of the people," Herron said.Brenton Geach/Gallo Images
