Some SA youth say voting is pointless
According to the IEC, 1.7 million voters registered during the special two-day registration weekend, and 433 198 of those registered for the first time.
“So many people are standing on the road looking for jobs. But those in power are living lavish lifestyles.” “The high turnout on day one led to pressure on the commission’s information technology systems, in particular our new voter management devices , which developed a glitch in the mapping functionality,” the IEC said on Monday.
“They are excluding South Africans and their right to be able to register to vote,” she added, without clarifying.
