DaggaParty may or may not be on the ballot, says Jeremy Acton

The party raised the money to register but aren’t sure if they paid it across to the IEC in time.

Acton related an almost farcical comedy of errors regarding his party’s attempts to register on the Independent Electoral Commission website, which possibly doesn’t do much to dispel stereotypes about the organisational skills of cannabis users. He was, however, refreshingly honest for a politician.

“We managed to get someone else to pay the 100,000 rand and we’re not sure if it went through before or after the cutoff.”
