# The ANC says it will oppose the DA’s application to intervene in its Electoral Court case over the submission of candidate lists in six municipalities for the November local government elections. The ANC is appealing the Electoral Commission’s exclusion of candidates, after missing the 28 August deadline, blaming a “technical glitch” on the online system. The DA argues that allowing the ANC to submit candidates after the deadline would prejudice parties that complied with the IEC rules. The ANC says the DA’s intervention is an act of campaigning, not of the Constitution.
