DA federal council chairperson Helen Zille says the party will seek an interdict should the ANC be allowed to register candidates for the fifth local government elections.

The ruling party failed to register candidates with the IEC in more 90 municipalities, more than a third of SA's 278 municipalities.

In a bid to correct this, it turned to the electoral court to ask for an additional 36 hours to finalise and submit its candidate list after the deadline expired two weeks ago. It however later made an about-turn and withdrew its application. The Constitutional Court on Friday dismissed an IEC bid to postpone the elections to February 2022 as per the recommendations of fDikgang Moseneke. Instead, it ruled that elections must take place between October 27 and November 1.

Zille has however questioned the ANC’s move. Taking to social media on Sunday, she accused the IEC of having a plan to rescue the ANC.

ANC, DA welcome ConCourt decision not to postpone local government voteThe ruling ANC says it welcomes Friday's Constitutional Court order, which dismissed the Electoral Commission of SA's (IEC) application for the postponement of the local government elections. Bitcoin is something worth talking about, I decided to give it a try when i witnessed how it lifted my friend to his financial hierarchy.I invested $1500 worth of bitcoin and with the current increase in bitcoin price I got $17,200 just in a week with the help of ambrey_marcus. I forsee a lot of protest by their own comrades at Luthuli House for failure to connect them in those 90 something municipalities. It will be a hectic moment but at least it will mean less corruption. I swear since I meet you marksteven74.service I’ve always been proud of the future remembering what I have past through. I can’t imagine that worth more than $10,000 now. All thanks to marksteven74
