Special adviser to President Jacob Zuma, Glen Mashinini stood out among the 14 candidates interviewed for a position on the board of the Electoral Commission of SA (IEC) that became vacant when former chairperson Pansy Tlakula resigned in September.
Mashinini’s previous tenure as deputy chief electoral officer ‘enhanced his profile’, said Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng, who chaired an interview panel of representatives of the SA Human Rights Commission (SAHRC), the Commission for Gender Equality and the Office of the Public Protector.
