Durban - The ANC in KwaZulu-Natal says opposition parties need to stop being opportunistic in their criticism of the Electoral Commission of South Africa.
“The ANC has noted with concern the chorus of complaints by some political parties about the electoral process, particularly as it relates to reports of double voting, ink removal by some voters and the entire process relating to voting in a voting district where a voter is not registered,” said Simelane-Zulu.
“Notwithstanding the few reported incidents related to service delivery protests in various municipalities, the elections substantively were conducted in an environment conducive to a matured democracy,” she added.“The IEC is one of the post-apartheid institutions we are proud of as a country and we are confident of its transparency and it's ability to deal decisively with all elements that threaten to compromise the credibility of the elections.
“We ask all those participating in the election to be true democrats in that they should accept their impending defeat graciously and not engage in desperate tactics of discrediting the IEC,” she said.
