DA continues to lead in Gauteng, followed by ANC, ActionSA
IEC's Sipane says progress is being made with the capturing and auditing of results in Gauteng.
In Gauteng, the Democratic Alliance (DA) continues to lead the vote count with 34% of the vote, according to Nthabi Sipane, the provincial manager for Electoral Operations. The African National Congress (ANC) follows in second place with 21% of the vote, while ActionSA comes in third with 17%. Sipane notes that progress is being made in capturing and auditing the results, with 3,997 districts already completed.
However, Johannesburg has lagged behind in completing its vote count, which the Commission aims to finalize by the end of the day. Gauteng is currently at 50% of the voting districts captured, with Midvaal and Lesedi expected to finish soon.
