Elections2019: IEC welcomes readiness inspection
Centurion - Political parties contesting elections have been invited to bring their information technology experts by the Electoral Commission to inspect the hi-tech machinery it is using for the May 8 polls.

The IEC contracted more than a dozen IT firms for the elections, but Mamabolo assured the country the checks and balances built into the result-processing system were in place. An independent audit of the results centre has assured voters the system could “run the successful electoral events in so far as capturing results, calculating seats and assigning seats based on the work performed”.“There won’t be a voting station in South Africa without EFF ears and eyes.
