Daarmee is die verkiesingsprogram en alle statut\u00eare sperdatums amptelik in werking gestel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Die Onafhanklike Verkiesingskommissie (OVK) s\u00ea die proklamasie beteken daar is nou 89 dae oor voordat kiesers hul stemme uitbring. Alle verkiesingsaktiwiteite sal voortaan volgens die amptelike verkiesingstydlyn verloop, met sperdatums wat streng om 17:00 op die onderskeie datums sluit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vrydag is ook die laaste geleentheid vir kiesers om voor middernag as kiesers te registreer of hul besonderhede op te dateer. N\u00e1 middernag sal geen nuwe registrasies of veranderinge aan die kiesersrol toegelaat word nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Die voorlopige kiesersrol sal vanaf 11 Augustus vir inspeksie beskikbaar wees. Besware sluit op 18 Augustus, waarna die OVK sy besluite op 24 Augustus sal kommunikeer. Die gesertifiseerde kiesersrol word op 26 Augustus gepubliseer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Politieke partye en onafhanklike kandidate kan van Vrydag af hul benoemings indien. Benoemings sluit op 28 Augustus om 17:00, terwyl die finale kandidaatlyste op 16 September bekend gemaak sal word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Die OVK het ook bekend gemaak dat sy nuwe digitale registrasiestelsel sterk belangstelling geniet. Sedert die bekendstelling van WhatsApp-registrasie op 3 Augustus het meer as 14 300 mense di\u00e9 platform gebruik om te registreer, terwyl die kommissie sedert die vorige registrasienaweek meer as twee miljoen kiesertransaksies verwerk het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Volgens die OVK sal spesiale stemme op 2 en 3 November plaasvind vir kiesers wat weens siekte, \u2019n gestremdheid of ander geldige redes nie op verkiesingsdag by \u2019n stemlokaal kan uitkom nie. Aansoeke daarvoor open op 21 September en sluit op 12 Oktober.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Die kommissie het ook aangekondig dat \u2019n nuwe gedragskode teen waninligting tydens die verkiesing in werking tree. Die doel is om vrye, regverdige en vreedsame verkiesings te bevorder en die verspreiding van vals inligting te bekamp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-whatsapp-registrasies-per-provinsie-sedert-bekendstelling-op-3-augustus\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">WhatsApp-registrasies per provinsie sedert bekendstelling op 3 Augustus<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Provinsie<\/th><th>Aantal registrasies<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Gauteng<\/td><td>5 599<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>KwaZulu-Natal<\/td><td>2 310<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Wes-Kaap<\/td><td>2 284<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Oos-Kaap<\/td><td>1 286<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Noordwes<\/td><td>931<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Noord-Kaap<\/td><td>594<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Mpumalanga<\/td><td>543<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Vrystaat<\/td><td>441<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Limpopo<\/td><td>331<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Totaal<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>14 319<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Bron: Onafhanklike Verkiesingskommissie (OVK), 7 Augustus 2026.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Digitale registrasie in syfers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Maatstaf<\/th><th>Syfer<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>WhatsApp-registrasies sedert 3 Augustus<\/td><td>14 319<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bykomende transaksies sedert vorige registrasienaweek<\/td><td>210 734<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Bron: Onafhanklike Verkiesingskommissie (OVK), 7 Augustus 2026.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Geregistreerde politieke partye<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Kategorie<\/th><th>Getal<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Nasionaal<\/td><td>330<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Distrik<\/td><td>257<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Provinsiaal<\/td><td>32<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Metropolitaans<\/td><td>55<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Totaal<\/td><td>674<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Bron: Onafhanklike Verkiesingskommissie (OVK), 7 Augustus 2026.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kandidaatdeposito&#8217;s<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Kategorie<\/th><th>Bedrag<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Plaaslike raad<\/td><td>R4 700<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Distriksraad<\/td><td>R2 800<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Onafhanklike wykkandidaat<\/td><td>R1 800<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Kandidaat in elke munisipaliteit<\/td><td>R693 600<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Bron: Onafhanklike Verkiesingskommissie (OVK), 7 Augustus 2026.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Die aftelling na Suid-Afrika se 2026-plaaslike regeringsverkiesing het Vrydag amptelik begin nadat die minister van Samewerkende Regering en Tradisionele Sake, Velenkosini Hlabisa, 4 November as verkiesingsdag geproklameer het.
