The UDM says it will join the ANC as friends of the court when the ruling party goes to the electoral court to call for the reopening of registration for its local government candidates. IEC elections UDM ANC

Cope says the electoral court must reject the ANC's application for the reopening of the registration of candidates for the local government elections.ANC deputy secretary-general Jessie Duarte said the ruling party will, today, file an urgent application in the electoral court, asking it to force the IEC to accept those candidates who were excluded, after the party “experienced glitches” with the electoral body’s online system.

Bloem said it will make a mockery of the IEC regulations governing elections. It will also be totally unfair to entertain this application of the ANC. “We as Cope worked under serious pressure around the clock to register our candidates and meet the deadline because we knew that there is no second chance. The ANC must be reminded that the IEC on Monday changed the deadline, and extended the deadline by 4 hours.

“The country must never allow a situation where one political party can think that they can bend laws as they wish to suit them,” he said.“We are calling upon all political parties and independent candidates who have registered to contest the elections to raise their voices and reject the ANC electoral court's application.”

The IEC revealed on Tuesday that only two political parties have registered to contest for 10 285 municipal council seats in 257 municipalities, but declined to reveal their names.

The General. Come on.

I agree with those parties that are pleading for re opening of submitions of names for those who want to be elected in local government elections that are about to take place. It was very difficult to organise community meetings, because of the State of Disaster Act.🇿🇦❤️

No money for their staff salaries but enough for one court case after the other to try and get courts to sort out their own internal issues.
