Fourteen of nineteen IOC replies favor barring South Africa from the Mexico Olympic Games as world tension and a possible boycott push the committee toward keeping the ban. An emergency IOC meeting urged the nine-man executive board to recommend non invitation, while a postal vote at the Grenoble games showed a slender readmission majority. If the vote fails to meet validity, a deadline may render late ballots invalid.
