A number of smaller parties who have fared badly in the 2019 election results are planning their next step, with a legal challenge imminent.
Numerous smaller political parties at the results centre in Pretoria are feeling disgruntled amid evidence from the IEC’s voter count that only eight parties have so far received more than half a percent of the vote.
A record 48 parties appeared on the ballot this year, and most of those who have no hope of now of winning a seat in the National Assembly or a provincial legislature have gathered at the results centre to express their disdain about the results and the electoral process.The DA’s Mmusi Maimane has, however, called on the country to give the IEC’s audit process a chance before making a determination on the integrity of the elections.
