IEC Delegated Official

The interview focused on preparations for South Africa's 2026 Local Government Elections and the importance of voter registration. The IEC thanked the millions of South Africans who registered or updated their details during the first voter registration weekend in June, while reminding listeners that more than 11 million eligible citizens are still not registered. The discussion also encouraged people to make use of the second voter registration weekend on 1 and 2 August to register or update their details ahead of the elections in November.
