LGE 2026 | Some Mthatha residents to boycott elections over ANC's candidate selection process

The Independent Electoral Commission of South Africa (IEC) says that it will close the voters’ roll at midnight on the day of the official proclamation of the election date.

It says no new registrations or changes to voter details will be accepted after the deadline.

The IEC have urged urged voters to come out in their numbers to visit voting stations, before the voters' roll is close.
