The electoral process has progressed smoothly, as no objections were raised against the inclusion of names on the Provisional Voters Register by the deadline of September 4, 2024.

ECN spokesperson De Wet Siluka confirmed this to nbc-news.

Our nbc News reporter Luqman Cloete and Camera operator Simon Isak were on the ground to update us on the voting process.

The election was necessitated by the withdrawal of the former regional councillor for the constituency Gerrit Witbooi by his former party LPM.
