But GOOD plans to get legal advice, claiming that it received damning information to add to what it had already submitted to the Electoral Commission of SA . The additional information shows that more residents were registered in other wards, it claims.On Sunday, GOOD submitted evidence of its allegations to the IEC, claiming that voters in Thembalethu and Conville were reregistered as voters in Borcherds.
He added that intimidation charges were laid against GOOD secretary-general Brett Herron and regional coordinator Donovan Saptoe. In a statement, Simmers said:"The complainant is a voter accusing Herron and Saptoe of aggressive attempts to coerce the voter into signing a false affidavit, written by Herron himself, to the effect that the voter had been misled and manipulated by DA canvassers to be unlawfully registered.
"GOOD will not let the matter rest. Regardless of the outcomes of the by-elections, it will take further steps to compel the IEC to sanitise the voters' roll," he said.
