So I have one small issue with this.

Does the president live in Soweto with a house in that voting district? The rest of us have to follow this new rule, surely he should vote in cape town where his primary private residence is?

Oke in the North West voting for the DA due to the amazing difference he sees when he visits the WC. Superb guy!

I wonder who he voted for since 1994?

Definitely the “first” lady because he has multiple on the side.

Has he done ANYthing to indicate they operate on fairness and rule-following lol.

Same.

No, but it's a simple question that should be asked.. All politicians should vote at the right voting station for where their primary private residence is...

No idea, but since that turned out to be his voting station according to IEC I don't see any reason why he shouldn't have got all three.

But he is still sulking, we'll hear when he finally decide to speak to journalists.

Yeah that's how we can tell whether the IEC or the general fscked up. Seems like he embarrassed himself...

Long ago... Not even 5 minutes and it was all done.

Dawie has a very early estimate of 60% turnout, which is the main turnout scenario SRF were punting. If that is true, good for the DA and bad news for the ANC.

My headlights aren't that good, I prefer to see the potholes during the day. Will go late afternoon.

I'm still in my pyjamas.

I cracked my first beer awhile ago already.

Too early to tell. Queues are being reported at 1.5 - 2 hours at the stations in our area. And it's a DA/ASA stronghold. There's very little turnout data at this point...

Uh. That's just the expat voting.

Way too early for turnout predictions.

Just another lazy person that can't do the admin of logging into the IEC website to check registration details.

No luck for me, thought I was going to stroll in like a Boss but queue is still long. Not too bad though since it's moving swiftly.

OK don't get something free, spiteful people only spite themselves. Everyone should vote regardless if they get something free but if it's there to motivate some people great stuff.

You can do both. Your civic duty and cash in on freebies.
