The Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) is expected to certify its voter roll on Tuesday. More than 27.7 million eligible voters are on the voters\u2019 roll. This is a record since the dawn of democracy.<\/p>\n

The Electoral Commission will publish the certified list of voters and will then make it available at all of its offices in the provinces and municipalities.<\/p>\n

The Chief Electoral Officer, Sy Mamabola was briefing the media in Centurion, Pretoria, on Monday<\/a> on the latest developments as South Africans head to the polls on May 29.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe certification follows the finalisation of objections by the commission on the provisional voters\u2019 roll that was published for inspection on the 26th of February this year. Certification of the roll signifies confirmation of those citizens who are eligible to vote in the forthcoming election.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cElectronic copies of the voters\u2019 roll which contain the redacted identity numbers of voters in compliance with the Protection of Personal Information Act will be provided to all political parties and independent candidates who have qualified to contest the elections,\u201d Mamabolo adds.<\/p>\n
