They should, and the only reasonable way to do that is to remove them from power. Anything else is idiotic.

Wow this is quite a bad result, just over 50% of votes counted but ANC already at +- 63%... At this rate they'll go into the high sixties range.

They're planning on announcing the final results on Saturday. Officially. We'll have a pretty good idea before then, obviously.
That's the point. They aren't.

Weird isn't it? Sitting in drivers license queue at the mo, wish it was as quick as the voting yesterday.
Very.my polling station has a 1000 registered voters and that isn't even up yet.

Last I looked earlier at the cities, city of Jhb was also not counted yet. One would think their results would start flowing first.....especialy with ballot boxes in agent houses

After the spare ballots are marked ANC

The party claimed that ballot boxes were not sealed at a station in Gauteng and an IEC official was found marking ballots for the African National Congress.

Find it weird how the ANC is still over 60% after all the protesting, limpopo problems and people saying they not going to vote for them again.
They must not strike and complain again since this is what they voted for.

You hold them accountable by voting for somebody else if they fail to deliver. This isn't rocket science...
That only works if the party that you voted for was in power.
31.73% of potential votes counted nationally in 54.38% of voting districts. ANC has 62.94% national, and DA 22.77% atm.

Hope the rate changes but at this rate by 16:20 the estimated ANC percentage is 64.092% Hope I'm wrong though.

Most of the metros are unaccounted for.

Hopefully that'll slow it a bit
Large portions of GP are unaccounted for, too.

Yes
Yes. I can see 83% of my area voted DA. My station has almost finished counting their votes.
