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.
