# The ANC has taken its fight over 181 excluded election candidates to the Constitutional Court. This comes after the Electoral Court last week dismissed the party’s bid to have the candidates reinstated for the 4 November local government elections. The party argues the candidates’ details were captured on the Electoral Commission’s online system before the deadline of 28 August, but administrators could not complete the final submission. The ConCourt is expected to hear the matter on 7 October.
