2024 Elections | IEC denies inflating on its website

IEC denies inflating numbers on its website

JOHANNESBURG - The Independent Electoral Commission found itself trending on X this evening. But it says there should be no reason for anger or panic.

Allegations that the elections have been manipulated were rife on the social media platform, after people noticed that national numbers suddenly doubled for some parties, including the ANC, on its website.
