ANC, DA: Ballot paper shortages in WC could cost us votes SAElections
CAPE TOWN - Both the African National Congress and the Democratic Alliance in the Western Cape are concerned that ballot paper shortages experienced in the province could cost them votes.
Doors are supposed to remain open beyond the 9pm cut-off time if there are still people queuing inside a voting station precinct. Wednesday’s cold and wet weather was already expected to have affected turnout. But ballot papers running out had upped the stakes. “We know at least four or five voting districts in Nyanga, we know of 13 in Khayelitsha affected – another 10 in the Mfuleni and Philippi area – which are all our base areas,” said Mohamed.
