The lists of candidates submitted to the Independent Electoral Commission by political parties contesting the April 22 national and provincial elections will be released for pubic scrutiny today.

The lists will determine who will go to parliament and the provincial legislature, depending on how many votes their party gets.

Anyone is allowed to inspect the list and the documentation submitted to show that the candidates qualify and agree to abide by the Electoral Code.

The lists can be inspected either at the commission’s head office in Pretoria or at any municipal offices.

The commission will accept objections to any candidates on the grounds that they are not qualified to stand in the elections.
