The Umkhonto weSizwe Party isn’t giving up its fight to challenge the May election outcome.
It has taken its fight to the Electoral Court and filed an urgent application to have the election results set aside.
The party, led by former president Jacob Zuma, wants the court to declare the polls invalid.
It alleges that there were serious irregularities and that the polls were not free and fair.
The MK party wants the elections rerun within 90 days of a court order.
Earlier this week, the party made a similar application to the country’s top court to block Parliament from convening its first sitting.
It claims “hundreds of thousands of votes” were stolen from it during the national election, but it told the Constitutional Court it would not provide evidence yet.
The apex court dismissed the application and stated that it was neither within its jurisdiction to hear the case nor in the interest of justice to grant direct access.
