Comment
Parties may alsoinvoke the unlimited original jurisdiction of the High Court as conferred inarticle 165 (3) of the constitution to challenge Presidential election   resultsbefore the High Court. Given that it will be subject to the usual court processdelays time limit is not provided. http://www.eisa.org.za/PDF/eh21.pdf
