Independent Electoral CommissionThe IEC has received objections to 53 candidates affecting nine political parties contesting the polls on the 8th of May., says while he cannot confirm which individuals have received objections, all nominees remain on party lists until the announcement is made.
Mashinini says preparations are at an advanced stage to ensure that the 27,6 million registered voters cast their ballots at the nearly 23 000 voting stations countrywide.“That is the message that we repeat to all the parties to say let’s play by the rules, let’s not drag the institution frivolously in the hurly-burly of electoral contestation and all of that and by the time we emerge the other side its now encumbered, with wrong perception,”says Mashinini.
