The ANC is set to provide an update on its candidate nominations after challenging the IEC’s decision over candidates whose submissions were not formally completed.
The ANC will brief the media on its candidate nominations for the November 4 local government elections, after filing papers with the Electoral Court challenging the IEC’s decision over its candidate lists.
The briefing will provide an update on the party’s councillor candidates and its preparations for the upcoming elections.
The media briefing comes after the ANC filed an application with the Electoral Court, challenging the Electoral Commission of South Africa’s (IEC) decision to exclude nominations that were not formally submitted by the August 28 deadline.
The party argues that technical problems with the IEC’s online system affected some candidate submissions.
