23rd respondent sought to misrepresent the results of the election, has no foundation. It is false and is denied. 43. Ad Para 6.2.7- 6.3 This is denied. 43.1. As I have already averred, what lies in the sole purview of the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, (where available), is the declaration made in terms of s110(3)(f) of the Electoral Act. I made that declaration in terms of the law. 43.2. What the various Commissioners of the Electoral Commission announced were provincial totals. Nothing in the Electoral Act bars this. None of the Commissioners made any declaration in terms of s110(3)(f). 43.3. The applicant does not explain in his affidavit how he concludes that the way the election results were announced affected the eventual outcome. He simply makes a bare allegation which is, in any event, not supported by the relevant provisions of the Electoral Law. 44. Ad Para 6.4- 6.4.3 This is denied. 44.1. Annexure C to the applicant’s papers is not a document originated by the Electoral Commission. The Electoral Commission cannot vouch for its authenticity.
