Durban - With the local government elections results still being counted, calls for the digitisation of elections emerged as analysts and political parties conceded that the voter turn-out was at its lowest since the dawn of democracy.
“The IEC needs to engage in voter education. Young people need to be encouraged and involved in strategic leadership positions. Voter absenteeism from the youth can also be addressed through the digitisation of elections so they can vote on their smartphones.
