The Democratic Alliance on Tuesday said the
ANC in Parliament voted against a DA proposal that would have extended the
right to vote on the national and provincial ballot to all South Africans,
including those living abroad.
DA MP Deputy of Home Affairs Masizole
Mnqasela said time is running out before next year’s elections and they will
continue to fight this matter in court.
Mnqasela said it is rather unfortunate that
the ANC opted to ignore a fundamental democratic right for South Africans to
vote for both provincially and nationally irrespective of whether the person is
abroad or in the country.
He added that the DA will contest this
decision even if it going to the constitutional court.
