Further information: The above tally is showing a total vote of 65,226 yet the VEC had reported receiving 66432 ballot papers. This is a discrepancy of over 1206 votes. These could have been excluded due to no signature on the vote envelope. There are also a large number of votes that will arrive next week too late to be included into the count.
