ANC Candidates Restored After Party Failed to Press ‘Submit’

Affected. In fact, 72 other parties now who had similar administrative problems will now have their candidates included as well. What effect is this going to have on the ground on whole day? Well, it's a complete and utter total nightmare for the IEC because let's be honest, they literally have printed 27 million ballot papers for nothing. Those ballot papers need to be destroyed. And I'm talking

27 million ballot papers covering all the political parties that are now going to be included. So it's not just the six municipalities and the 181 ANC public representative candidates, but it's all the 32 parties. I think it's just over 100 municipalities. So, yeah, the IEC has to print another 33 million ballot papers, they said. Huge.

Headache, huge logistical nightmare. But of course, the IEC has a long history of being able to roll with things as they come. So, come the 4th of November, you can be assured that all the headaches are done and dusted, and that when voters come to the polling stations, the right ballot papers with all the political parties will be there. Look, there's always little issues. I mean, I take your mind back, I think.
