Resolved Mis- or disinformation

Outcome

Mis- or Disinformation

Overview

In this post on Twitter/X, there is a video by Visvin Reddy in which he claims that what was found in Hammarsdale was millions of ballots already marked ANC.

Background & Outcome

Spreading already established misinformation. Speaker also adds new misinformation. It is wholly untrue that millions of prepared ballots intended for "ballot stuffing" in favour of the ANC were found in Natal. The information undermines the IEC's ability to run the upcoming elections. The conduct is a clear contravention of the Electoral Code - Visvin Reddy is a candidate (on the submitted list) for the MK party.
