Nice 1% swing thus far as CoJ starts to come in.

My district is in. 117 (2.65%) votes for the EFF. Surprising as the surrounding areas are all middle to upper income areas.
 
What is amazing is to see how divided we still are. the areas are very clearly DA or ANC very few have the TIE markings.
 
I hope COJ can increase the DA % some more. Still more votes to come in from JHb. Nice!
 
DA scored a critical hit in Gauteng, took 7% back from the ANC in last hour or so (53/32 atm)
 
Reality of it is that the poor communities are more likely to vote ANC and have high population density - which means more votes to count and longer time to count. The ANC will get a surge as those ones come in.

Sad but true. Even with the da saying they would offer jobs
 
This surge in Gauteng also happened in 2009 remember.... then all the rest of the districts came in....
 
Kouga is a tiny lake of blue in the sea of green that is the Eastern Cape. I hope that this is a sign of what our 2016 municipal results will look like. PE could also swing to the DA as well.
 
From FB: "saw this in Sontraal Heights few minutes ago.The boxes that had the voters ballots in laying open between the make shift stands."

here’s a new political party headed for Parliament and it seems its success may be because voters voted for it by accident.

The African Independent Congress (AIC) is a party in the Eastern Cape region of Matatiele in the former Transkei homeland.

This year, the AIC was registered provincially only in the Eastern Cape and also nationally.

The party’s colours are also reminiscent of the ANC – black, yellow, green and white.

And on this year’s ballot papers, the AIC appeared just above the ANC.

It is possible that some voters may have unintentionally voted for the AIC, thinking they were voting for the ANC.

By 3pm, votes for the AIC stood at 51 939. But in its Eastern Cape stronghold, the party has so far gained only 12 617 votes.

These figures don’t add up. In 2009 the AIC did not appear on the national ballot paper, only on that of the Eastern Cape, where the party gained 17 306 votes.

An ANC official said a mistake was the only explanation for the AIC’s sudden success.

DA representatives say any seat that does not go to the ANC is good.

By 3pm, the AIC was ahead of the ACDP, Agang, the PAC and the APC.

Anybody yet discussed the posters on poles ?
Maybe the taxpayer funded party could offer 10c per poster . The homeless would tidy SA in a week.
