The ongoing South Africa election has recorded controversy with various parties that include the ANC, EFF, MK among other parties claiming rigging against the Democratic Alliance party in the Western Cape, which is its stronghold.
This comes as there have been glitches in the results system platform with the system crashing for hours soon after voting had ended.
In a letter, 19 parties demand the Independent Electoral Commission to recount the votes in the Western Cape, alleging that the DA rigged votes in its favour.
“We, the undersigned political parties, noting the provisions of Section 55 objections in terms of the said act and the 21:00 deadline on said day and given numerous inconsistencies raised at the PLC meeting this evening at the IEC Results Centre that have not been responded to, and while we reserve our rights herein as political parties to raise objections in terms of S(55), we jointly request condonation until 48 hours after the last ballot paper has been scanned and submitted for verification,” reads the letter.
The DA party garnered over 50% of the total votes in the Western Cape, with other parties left to battle for the remaining share.
