The results show that in Wednesday's elections the party received about 172,000 votes, which translates to 54.9% of the total provincial electorate. The nearest competitor, the DA, managed to pull only half of that in the same period, at slightly more than 28%.The EFF, with 8.2%, appeared to be the one party gaining substantial growth in the province – its progress thus far having almost doubled the amount of support it received in 2014.
At national level, it remains too early to tell what the outcome of this year’s elections will be, as only 30% of all voting stations had completed their tallies by 10.30am. With the Electoral Commission having verified about 4-million votes by this time, the ANC remained top, with 54.85%.
