The MK party’s rejecting of the election results in South Africa is another early indication of the chaos & corruption they will help entrench in our political system. Calling for a recount when their objection is actually about transmission of the voting tally, not counting, is either stupid or malicious.
Mechanisms exist for objecting to a mistransmission (which are also independently audited) and we’ve had fewer objections this election that last (32 vs 56). No recount needed.
