The ANC deputy secretary-general says her party does not have the power to influence the electoral commission
ANC deputy secretary-general Jessie Duarte has rejected claims that the governing party received preferential treatment from the Electoral Commission of SA .
IEC chair Glen Mashinini said parties would be able to field their candidates after the September 18-19 voter registration weekend. This serves as a much-needed lifeline for the ANC‚ which failed to register candidates with the IEC in more than 90 municipalities.“We reject the accusation being made that the ANC tried to influence the IEC or the Constitutional Court in any way. We did not and we cannot. We met yesterday with all other political parties in the party liaison committee for the first time with the IEC.
