The ANC still comfortably leads the overall poll, but there’s a lot of devil in the smaller detail. Reports are that the ANC is now accepting the Bay result.
By 10am, the DA had all but won in the Nelson Mandela Bay metro, with a reduced lead, but in Gauteng little was yet completely clear.
News24 also reported that it understood that the ANC would withdraw its complaint against the IEC in Nelson Mandela Bay.
In an interview with eNCA thereafter, the ANC’s Jackson Mthembu said they had withdrawn the complaint because they realised it had little chance of success and they were satisfied that votes had been correctly counted after consultation with the IEC.
With the overall count at 92% at 10.00am on Friday, the IEC said it expected to have all results finalised by no later than noon on Friday. Ethekwini metro in particular had been lagging badly behind in the count.
