The Electoral Court dismissed an application by the MK party on Friday, ruling their case challenging the 2024 national and provincial election results as 'flawed'. Former President Jacob Zuma's party claimed the integrity of the election was compromised when the IEC's results dashboard went blank for two hours on May 31, 2024.
