Electricity outages, protests and lack of water were some of the issues that delayed and, in some cases, prevented some voters from casting their votes at voting stations in the Eastern Cape.



Voters got off to an early start across the province on Wednesday, with some enthusiastic South Africans already queued up at their voting stations in the Eastern Cape as early as 5am, two hours before stations officially opened.

As millions of South Africans went to the polls to make their mark, several disruptions were reported at voting stations, which either delayed or thwarted voting.
