“The voting station ran out of ballot papers. They were only a few leftovers from the special votes. For me this is completely unacceptable as the same thing happened at Rinaldo Road (Action Cricket). There the IEC had to get more ballot papers from the Sunningdale voting station. Thankfully both stations are running smoothly now,” he said.
