The Appeals Board Committee led by Kingsley Sebele, is 'working around the clock' to speed up possible reruns. 

Already the party is running behind time since the voter registration period is about to end and voters are not yet sure which candidate would stand come next year. 

Recently, the BDP secretary general Mpho Balopi announced that the committee has 79 cases before it. 

He said the appeals would be attended to within seven days of their being tendered, and a decision then reached within 30 days.  Of the 76 cases, 27 are from the parliamentary candidates while 49 are from council candidates.

Some of the constituencies that are still waiting for their appeals are Kgalagadi North, Kanye North, Lobatse, Tati West, Ghanzi South, Bobonong, Mmadinare, Selebi-Phikwe East, amongst others.
