South Africa’s electoral process relies on adherence to rules regarding voter registration posters to maintain fairness and integrity. Violations of these rules, such as leaving political posters displayed after the designated timeframe, undermine the democratic process. Political parties are responsible for the expenses incurred by the City for removing noncompliant posters, and penalties for violating these rules start at R134,10 per poster. Upholding these regulations ensures fair play in political campaigns and upholds the sanctity of the electoral process.
