GAUTENG.- The Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) has said that progress in relation to the finalization of results now stands at 98.5 per cent of expected results.
The IEC further said that at the level of capturing, 99.9 per cent of results are already in the system awaiting scanning and auditing.

Of the 64 467 results captured, 64 402 have audited and 63 624 have been scanned into an image and thus available.
“The above status indicates that the result collation process is about finalized.
