The ANC’s recent struggles in the Electoral Court raised questions over what this means for its election prospects.
The court dismissed the party’s application to appeal after it failed to submit 181 of its candidates before the registration deadline.
The ANC argued that because they had already uploaded the candidate information, their intent to contest was clear and a final submission shouldn’t be a legal requirement.
The IEC argued that the submission process was dictated by law, finalisation was mandatory, and their submission logs showed no technical failures.
