The ANC was leading the pack, with 42.95% of the votes. This is followed the the DA with 25.24% and the EFF with 8.60.
The ruling party has thanked South Africans who exercised their right and voted for a party of their choice.
ANC spokesperson Mahlengi Bhengu-Motsiri says the ruling party was not part of those that bused people to voting stations. “We’ve relied on people who live in those voting districts in line with said rules and regulations. We haven’t had a situation where we had to bus people because it must be people who live in that particular area,” Bhengu Motsiri told“We’ve noted some of the glitches associated with long queues. However, we are confident that the IEC is capable of managing this work as best as possible.”Bhengu-Motsiri said the ruling party was satisfied with the work of the Electoral Commission of South Africa .
“There has never been a time when the IEC has failed to deliver a successful election in South Africa. We need to give them a chance to conclude this work.”“Despite the many challenges, we are encouraged by the patience and tolerance of South Africans. This is indicative of our resilience and tenacity,” said the ANC.“The high turnout confirms the confidence of the South African people in democracy and determination to have a say in the country’s future.
