Lusanda Bill
18 May 2011
The Independent Electoral Commission says it is investigating reports that one of its polling station officials has tried to influence peoples’ votes.
Reports say an official at the Factreton polling station in Cape Town tried to convince queuing voters to mark their ballots in favour of the National Party.
Western Cape IEC head Courtney Sampson says they are looking into the matter and have since removed the official from his post.
Meanwhile the MEC of Community Safety Albert Fritz told the Bush Radio News Team that the IEC official was still at the polling station.
