Poor turnout at most of Tubatse’s voting stations

BURGERSFORT- The voting turnout at most voting stations in Tubatse was not satisfactory early in the morning. Steelburger/ Lydenburg News visited more than five voting stations in Steelpoort and Burgersfort, this included Koboti primary school, Mokobola primary school, Leagathoko secondary, Frans voting, station, Sehlaku and more.

The paper talked to political analyst M.J Matemane to find out the reasons the stations were empty.

“After I cast my vote I saw a lot of the youth on the streets gallivanting, most are fed up, because they don’t see change in their living conditions. They still lack basic services even after acquiring democracy, we wish the numbers of voters increases in the afternoon,” he said.
