The ANC has finally submitted its list of candidates who will contest the local government elections on November 1 after being granted an extension by the IEC
IEC to check names from all parties for possible duplication before publishing final list of candidates on September 29The ANC has submitted the names of 4,468 ward candidates and 257 municipal candidates to the Independent Electoral Commission to contest local government elections on November 1, ending a tumultuous few weeks for the ruling party.
The ANC’s list isn’t final, though. The IEC will by September 24 notify parties and independents of candidates who may appear on multiple lists, and these duplications must be revised by September 25 ahead of the publication of the final list on September 29. ANC deputy secretary-general Jessie Duarte told a media briefing on Wednesday that any candidates facing serious criminal charges had been removed from the list.
