The Court of Appeal of Tanzania nullified the Ilala parliamentary election after finding protected election rules were breached and the result was affected.
The Court of Appeal of Tanzania upheld nullification of an election after finding a corrupt practice: delivery of hoes to voters to influence support.
Petitioner failed to prove, beyond reasonable doubt, that corrupt or illegal practices or non-compliance with the Elections Act affected the result of the election. While some irregularities were established, such as denial of voting rights to 188 voters at two polling stations, the margin of victory (3,705 votes) was not overcome and the irregularities did not affect the overall result. Allegations of undue influence, bias, and misconduct were either unsubstantiated or not proven to the required standard.
