The IEC Chief Electoral Officer Sy Mamabolo has encouraged South Africans to use the upcoming national registration weekend to register to vote. Mamabolo says that with approximately 26 million of the 39 million eligible voters in South Africa on the voters’ roll, it’s important to increase the participation in elections.
Speaking in a media briefing at the IEC headquarters in Pretoria ahead of the national registration weekend, Mamabolo called on South Africans to use registration weekends which he says provide the greatest registration opportunity in comparison with other methods including online registration.
“The Electoral Commission makes an impassioned call on adult South Africans to seize the moment by registering as voters. Only those on the voters’ roll can have a say in the electoral outcomes next year. Even if you have not yet decided to vote, it is important to be on the voters’ roll because your choice can only be registered – therefore by not registering you lose your voice,” says Mamabolo.
