LGE 2026 | Candidate Nomination System: James Aphane shares more

The Electoral Commission (IEC) has reiterated that it will not open the Candidate Nomination System for any political party or independent candidate after the cut-off date.

This was communicated by the IEC at a briefing held earlier Wednesday in Centurion.

On Monday, the ANC released a statement citing that they had submitted several of their candidates’ names before last week’s Friday 5 pm deadline, however they claimed to have experienced technical difficulties with the IEC’s candidate-capture system and as a result affected a number of its remaining entries.

For more on this we are joined by General Manager for Electoral Operations, James Aphane.
