Figures that do not add-up and suspicious registration procedures have raised the notion amongst the losing side of the African National Congress (ANC) in Polokwane that the voting process was tampered with, the Beeld newspaper reported on Thursday.
The report said although conference delegates were told that only 3 900 people were entitled to vote about 3 983 turned up at the voting stations.
The total amount of votes, including spoiled voting papers, was however consistently about 100 lower from the number of people who voted.
The report said “various informed people” in the Thabo Mbeki camp were convinced that tampering took place by a (voting) company, which they accused of having links with new ANC President Jacob Zuma.

Louisa – Ye, I don’t see things being done again, in fact there isn’t a chance in hell! It’s just great to know that everything is corrupt.
Arne – I agree, get over this nonsense and start doing some work. We’re all working, so should they!
