# The Electoral Commission is reminding political parties and independent candidates the deadline to submit and complete nominations for this year’s local government elections is Friday at 5 pm. The IEC says the deadline cannot be extended or changed, and no submissions will be accepted after the cut-off. Parties and candidates are urged to finalise their details early to avoid missing the deadline. The online candidate nomination system will close at the same time for the elections on 4 November.
Final call for political parties and independent candidates as IEC candidate deadline looms
