The Independent Electoral Commission says it’s wrong for
some people to claim that yesterday’s Constitutional Court ruling on the Tlokwe
case will allow local government elections to be rigged.
Judges said they had found that the
voters' roll was invalid, because it did not contain the address information of
all voters, but suspended that finding for 18 months to allow the 3
August polls to go ahead.
IEC Deputy Chair Terry Tselane says
it’s wrong to claim this issue is all about vote-rigging.
The
Democratic Alliance’s Mike Moriarty however says it’s a fair ruling.
But
the suspension of inade-quacy does not apply to Tlokwe itself
