The Electoral Court will decide on the eligibility of election candidates who do not appear on the voters' roll, the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) head said on Monday.
Tlakula said being "qualified to vote" was one of the criteria for appearing on a candidate list to represent a particular party in government.
"A person qualified to stand is a person who is qualified to vote and you are not qualified to vote if you are not registered," she said.
Tlakula objected to 297 candidates from 28 parties. A total of 110 of these did not appear on the voters' roll.
The Electoral Act did not stipulate whether a candidate should be registered or not.
