The vote counting process is continuing, follow this live update for all you need to know about elections results.

News24 political analyst Ralph Mathekga says the IEC must act speedily to clarify issues around alleged irregularities. This follows a call by smaller political parties for the election to be re-run because of alleged problems related to the elections. This includes allegations of double voting, which the IEC is investigating.

Mathekga told News24:"The IEC must step up to clarify these issues. They need to establish the facts expeditiously so that you don't allow rumours to gather and gain momentum. I don't think we can say that the elections were rigged, but we also shouldn't dismiss the smaller parties just because they are small. But the IEC must expeditiously establish the facts about some of these things.
