Chief Electoral Officer Sy Mamabolo says no late applications will be accepted.
“Everybody who is unable to be at their station on election day can apply for a special vote, and it’s important that we emphasise that it is not based on age.
“People who may be visited at their homes must be persons who are infirm and people who have impaired mobility.”
