The Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) has explained the delay in announcing election results from the rest of the country to the public through the official election results centre that has been set up at Mulungushi International Conference Centre in Lusaka.

ECZ Public Relations Manager, Cris Akufuna explained this morning that the Commission has not yet received consolidated results from any of the 150 constituencies in Zambia.

ZANIS reports that Mr. Akufuna said the ECZ has however received results from some totalling centres from around the country but not the general total results from constituencies.

He said results are announced only when total results from a particular constituency have been received and added.

The ECZ Official also explained the delay to local election monitors, international election observers, civil society organisations, church representatives, political parties and the local and foreign media that have been eagerly waiting for results at the Mulungushi International Conference Centre since yesterday.

However, Mr. Akufuna assured the country that elections results will be announced as soon as totals from constituencies have been received by the centre.

He hoped that by 09:00 hours this morning, the Commission will have received some full results from some constituencies.

Meanwhile, Mr. Akufuna has disclosed that the electorate at Nakatindi polling station in Kanyama constituency in Lusaka will not be given another chance to vote following their decision to burn ballot papers yesterday.

He said the only voters that will be allowed to vote later are those in polling stations that did not receive their ballot papers by yesterday.

Three polling stations were affected in Lukulu west in Western Province after the vehicle that was delivering ballot papers was involved in an accident.

Mr. Akufuna said ECZ will this morning use Zambia Air Force (ZAF) helicopters to deliver election materials to the affected areas, adding that voting will be conducted immediately.

What happened to 48 hrs ?

#2 Comment By Champ On September 21, 2011 @ 10:05 am

Wait until after tomorrow then you may ask that question.

#3 Comment By Disgruntled On September 21, 2011 @ 12:10 pm

The ECZ appears to be quite disorganised. There seems to be serious a break down in communication between the operational staff (those reponsible for ensuring that all the logistics were in place) and the Honourable Justice who committed to the 48 hours…

This Western Province delay and lies of broken ehicles has been the story since time 2001. I see it as a way the ECZ is helping MMD to rig elections. For once, i would suggest they do noyt vote for presidential candidates.
Second, its ECZ’s goal to delay the announcement of results to allow for cheating by MMD in constituencies. If we had PVC we wuld have results by now

#6 Comment By Ricky Bobby? On September 21, 2011 @ 11:43 am

So what’s your suggestion, that the vehicle should not have had an accident?

#7 Comment By INDEPENDENT On September 21, 2011 @ 11:59 am

Riky . I suggest that vehicles do not always break down in Western Province.

MMD is busy making results to go to their favour. VJ is working on Lukulu (3 poling stations), Kapiri (1 poling station), Kanyama (3 poling stations). They will be voting being done today. HH is also sacrificing Southern province to RB. This is very bad. Boma ni Boma. The poling agents are very tired now. PVT should be put in place to avoid losing the elections.

#22 Comment By Nenani Banda On September 21, 2011 @ 9:11 am

MMD, You have failed to find rigging ways so far, so the delaying tactics are meant to find other means of rigging…… Zwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa MMD

Why edit Sata. The world needs to know Sata. This is why the man cannot become Zambia’s highest diplomat in representing us on the international platform as a President.

I also see your point in editing him

#24 Comment By Bigge On September 22, 2011 @ 8:52 am

But why edit the world didn’t edit Obama when he called Kanye West a jack ass. . . so why should the world edit Sata for calling an ***** ana ***** maybe its the ana they should edit because the man is so bembalised. The truth of the matter is that people should begin seeing people for who they are. . . . and that former PF general sercretary is one such ***** and that should not be edit. What about when George Bush called Moore a fool without redemption did the world edit, what about when Queen Elizabeth called Princess Diana a silly girl who needed to be corrected did the world edit that. . . the world should know what we are saying and if people deserve to be called names shall we do just that . . . check the meaning of ***** maybe its better than to be called a jack ass. . . . . . .

With more technology this time around, it’s amazing how the results are being delayed. Kanyama must be allowed to vote today. That place is too dangerous in the nite for people to go cast their votes. Rigging in the making. A lot were afraid to go vate in the nite to avoid muggings, rape, even murder.

These people at ECZ lie with a straight face An ECZ official attributed the delay due to the long distances between polling centres and constituency centres. He said in some cases the distance is 400 km! That is the distance between Lusaka and Chingola.

lets be patient its a difficult process to conduct elections especially in rural areas the roads are really bad to an extent that it can take 4 hours to cover a distance of 50kms no network coverages those who have been there can bear me witness. we need to hear from all consituency before concluding a winner its pre mature to say this has already won whe a lot of stations have not sent thr results.

I think when we armchair critics where arguing it off between RB and Sata, HH was busy campaigning. We completely removed him from the equation. It is now very clear that it was a mistake for PF to have undermined the pact. It seems RB may win because of the fragmented vote in the opposition. What a miscalculation!

Sata was always going to win Lusaka and C/Belt urban, but he’s still going to lose to RB cause of the rural areas where 64% of Zambians live.

#122 Comment By Gazi On September 21, 2011 @ 11:56 am

Rigging has become a Catch word these days. I propose we do a reserch and call people who have knowledge on the subject and then let the findings be published so that we are all in the know.
Otherwise every character who looses an election will claim the elections were rigged.

I am thrilled to note that PF is likely to take Mongu central consituency and that MMD has scooped all the 4 Ndola Rural consituencies. This is a warning to all these pseudopoliticians that Zambians are intelligent people who have gone beyond tribe politics and that the tribe card can no longer be used to gain votes. Remember Patrick Mwanawasa jnr, George Mpombo, Mlongoti and the lot yapping about Lambaland. I would like to see their faces. Am proud of you Zambians. VIVA MMD VIVA RB.

#138 Comment By Mutototo Seven Hours On September 21, 2011 @ 12:27 pm

Ken Rogers once sang like this and I quote: “You got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run
You never count your money when you’re sittin’ at the table.
There’ll be time enough for countin’ when the dealing’s done

Every gambler knows that the secret to survivin’
Is knowin’ what to throw away and knowing what to keep
‘Cause every hand’s a winner and every hand’s a loser
And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep”
Wina azalila, Wina azakondwela!!!

#140 Comment By Michaelme On September 21, 2011 @ 2:43 pm

So as far as you are concerned  48hrs is gone???you need help with additional math,hope you know algebra because I won’t help you that far. We voted yesterday up say up to 1800hrs by 1800 hrs today it’s only 24hrs.we are therefore talking about 1800hrs tomorrow before we can start looking for sangoma instead of ECZ for results.lukulu is still voting so they could not even give us the bits.

#164 Comment By Kunta-Kinte On September 21, 2011 @ 1:22 pm

#125 DADA – If I were you I would wait for official results. ECZ has started announcing in bits and pieces, but we have a long way to go. People should not be excited or make any judgements yet. What is clear though is that as we all expected it’s very tight, which makes everything very exciting…and whoever wins will deserve a part on the back. It is tough, because you have even new-comers like ADD snatching away small votes but actually interesting ones because they are getting votes all across the country. I feel good about our democracy. Once again it proves that if you say a powerful enough message people listen, and it doesn’t matter whichever province. To me that is the most exciting thing coming out of this election and I expect 2016 will be even better!!!

It’s evident that Sata is winning this election, thanks to HH winning in previously MMD strongholds, southern, western, northwest and central. Sata has grabbed his strongholds of northern, copper-belt, luapula and lusaka, leaving MMD with eastern. There’s no chance of rigging this time around.

So far nothing is surprising. It is all as expected PF is doing really well in urban areas and the 2 Bemba regions. I hear RB is sweeping most rural areas in terms of Presidential votes – although in terms of parliamentary votes MMD is in toruble. It is the same pattern as 2008. What will matter in the end is how the final numbers add up. Very simply, the one who will get consistently high votes across the country, even though he is not necessarily winning in many of them, will carry the day and win the Presidency. It was the same in 2008.

#148 BRAGGADOCIO – I’m a scientist who doesn’t depend on elections. I don’t really care who wins because my income does not depend on Zambia. My interest in Zambian elections is purely out of love for my own country and what is good for the country. You and I can agree or disagree on what is right for the country, but in the end history will unfold and prove one of us right. We are obviously speaking from different perspectives: you are a political cadre, I’m an analyst and what I’m saying now can be validated. In 2008, RB won because he was consistently either number 1 or number 2. Sata lost because he was consistently either number 1 or number 3. Sata has learnt from that and we can see improvements this time he is winning even in Barotseland. So it is tight, but it is too early.

Time for racing and quarelling is over. Now it is time to count the votes. Whatever I like doesn’t matter anymore because people have voted. This is going to be really tight fight and whoever wins deserves it. You see real men fighting here. If we go through this without any fights or violence, trully Zambia is a model democracy. Sometimes we condemn ourselves too much and forget what we have achieved as a country. This is exciting.

official results by Mambilima from Mulungushi via ZNBC – ECZ seems not to have results mambilima just waffling about the problems/concerns raised by stakeholders.they announce results as they streak in and as at now nothing in mambilima has left stage.

Yes, its Time for PF no matter what, the numbers are very clear such that even babys can understand them.

#217 Comment By Mpundu On September 21, 2011 @ 3:09 pm

Litunga you are a sick liar. How can PF win KANYAMA when ECZ has said they will not vote for destrying the ballots.

#218 Comment By Litunga On September 21, 2011 @ 3:51 pm

# 181 Mpundu – Kanyama constituency has been scooped my friend. Its only in one poling station that has not be allowed to vote. You have eyes but you cant see, you have ears but you cant hear. This is not the end of the road. Half of the 148 seats are yet to come. Just follow me because am on the PVT. Watch the space.

#219 Comment By voice of the voiceless On September 21, 2011 @ 3:14 pm

VERY OFFICIAL FROM RELIABLE SOURCE—Wynter Kabimba has written to Ireen Mambilima to start announcing results because according to the RESULTS collected by PF secretariat ,the PF LEADER SATA is leading Country wide by 59% while RB 32%.They have collected results in all polling stations were counting is finished .AT A BIGGER PICTURE,MMD is simmingly to lose elections by a big margin

Hi Guys, what song I just heard on Q fm which goes like “…kombokwe mairo…” Pretty good song. Why don’t these guys say the title of their songs.

By the way I’m disappointed in my country… this is a place where you can get any live general elections on any website anywhere, even by individual bloggers. What’s wrong with this country?

#223 Comment By chichi On September 21, 2011 @ 3:22 pm

Where are the elections results… is this deliberate or this is indeed a 4th World Country? Man what is wrong with us. I’m sitting here I’m supposed to go to sleep and I still don’t even know who is leading… ridiculous! Even this blogger Lusaka times can’t give us a live feed.

Has anyone noticed that The Post website is always down during Presidential elections. Either the Zambia Intelligence Services take it down or they should fire their IT guys.

#229 Comment By Jojo On September 21, 2011 @ 3:28 pm

Though am MMD supporter, I wish to differ with the comment of #184 with respect to MMD wins in Northern Province. Be specific, are you saying MMD has won Nakonde parley or RB has scored high in that constituency? Remember the parliamentary election in Nakonde was postponed due to the death of the PF candidate. 

#230 Comment By Litunga On September 21, 2011 @ 3:55 pm

#192 Jojo – PVT results are coming from Litunga. Once we see the figures are done, PVT will announce the results.

#237 Comment By Time Will Tell On September 21, 2011 @ 3:44 pm

Thanks UPND, this time you did not spoil for PF but for MMD keep it up. I can see you are sharing the votes with MMD in the former MMD strong holds and PF we drastically reduced the margins in areas where we virtually had no support and has managed to grab a few in some areas where we never existed. Good strategy, not rocket science DORA hey

#238 Comment By Mungoma On September 21, 2011 @ 3:48 pm

Mpundu’ #181
It’s not the entire Kanyama Constituency that has not voted, only those voters who were supposed to vote at Nakatindi Polling Station where ballot materials were destroyed won’t vote. The rest of the constituency voted.
Litunga is writing the truth.

#240 Comment By JULIUS BLESS MWAPE On September 21, 2011 @ 3:50 pm

MMD must be men enough to accept the results without tampering, like Dr. Kenneth Kaunda did in 1991. Zambian are tired with their dirt tactics of stealing elections.

#242 Comment By Ala ndafulwa On September 21, 2011 @ 3:50 pm

I WAS LOOKING AT THE 2008 PRESIDENTIAL RESULTS FORM. IN COPPERBELT SATA IS ALMOST DOUBLING THE FINGURES FROM WHAT HE GOT LAST ELECTIONS WHILE RB IS REDUCING DRASTICALLY.HH HAS ALSO WORKED ON HIM IN NORTHWESTERN AND WESTERN PROVINCE. IN NCHANGA LAST YEAR SATA 13688 AND RB 2526

#243 Comment By Kunta-Kinte On September 21, 2011 @ 3:52 pm

#192 JOJO – Are you differing with him or you are differing with the vote count? Because infact what he is reporting now was heard much earlier in the day. It is not news anymore! RB has taken Nakonde. These results were probably among the very first to come out.

#244 Comment By Joseph Manda On September 21, 2011 @ 3:54 pm

QFM is reporting that that an official has been taken by the paramilitary police at the elections totalling centre for altering the entries of the results. But guess what.. he is not MMD. He is actually a PF official!

#248 Comment By Lundazi Dweller On September 21, 2011 @ 4:07 pm

But Akufuna you have nothing on your website. You are a failure at your job. Please you and the lot of the ECZ directorship have to resign. When RB was delaying to announce election date he claimed he was waiting for you to tell him when you are ready. You told the whole country that ECZ was ready but if this is what you mean by being ready then we live in different countries.

#249 Comment By Litunga On September 21, 2011 @ 4:09 pm

We are still waiting to confirm the result in the parts of EP, SP, WP, NW and other rurals areas. I will furnish with the rest of results very soon.

#250 Comment By Italian Bunga Bunga On September 21, 2011 @ 4:09 pm

If he is guilty he should be sent in for not less than 15 years. Yes the time it would take to completely get rid of MMD in the eastern province.

#251 Comment By Italian Bunga Bunga On September 21, 2011 @ 4:22 pm

Manual verification/totaling up at Lusaka Civic centre for Mandevu and Lusaka Central.

One would have thought computers should help to sort out things. But no kubena Africa they have brought problems.

#253 Comment By shytex On September 21, 2011 @ 4:35 pm

SATA is a political genius!! Don’t get me wrong. I actually voted for HH. The man has built a party from nothing.
I hope his political prowess will translate into meaningful pro poor developmental policies and good governance as well as sanity in our country.
All the best as we look to the future where we hope to have the likes of HH and CHIPIMO to lead us ……

Fellow zambians lets not take this country and its citizens for granted.We are making a very grave mistake.Remember histrory does not die out.Whatever the MMD and its agents are doing to the zambians will never be written off.We are watching and a few years from now we are going to review all these issues ,because in life no situation is permanent.And none of us shall continue to be where we are now,as such its better to do the right things.So that when our times are over none of these shall come back to us.Lets build our nation and not destroy through acts of selfishness and evil.Must PF win lets accept the same goes for all the parties.We know the tricks from MMD.But not now and not this year.Maybe we must sacrifice something strong.People want change and let the change previal in zambia

#260 Comment By Wantanshi On September 21, 2011 @ 5:04 pm

So now, on this important day we have a news blackout. When people are anxious to find the outcome of the votes they cast they are denied this very basic right. The only place where you can glean some form of information on election results is this very blog and a few others. It’s not easy, you have to sift and get rid off some gibberish nonsense, false prophets and excess verbiage. What’s left after this exercise is not illuminating in the least. How long are we to remain third world? When KK used to call the whole bunch of officials STUPID *****S, oh how right he was!! There’s no way you can describe ECZ conduct otherwise. In this day with all their computers, telecomunications and internet they are still coming up fatuous excuses. Why are we cursed nefisushi fyamusango yu kanshi?!

I dont understand why people should say EU talking to RB… we run a simple majority system which means it can run till the last vote is cast do not confuse the 50+ system where a certain margin can be reached and you can call for the other opponent to conceded

#267 Comment By Braggadocio On September 21, 2011 @ 5:14 pm

Election results only coming through Qfm and this site. i hope we wont have a power blackout soon. One of the campaign ‘songs’ was that we are now a lower middle income country and this is what we have to show the world for such a status. it is really SAD.

#268 Comment By Patilishia Isaacs On September 21, 2011 @ 5:30 pm

Pepoz,

Please remember that RB only won the 2008 presidential election by 2% of the vote (35,000) which any one well versed in the Queen’s language will tell you means the skin of his teeth. 2008 was really a sympathy vote after the unbelivable ferrying of the late Mwanawasa SC’s body all over the country. It will take more than Dora Silliers bams to maintain that 2% lead. Most of the newly registered young voters who were not part of 2008 are unashamedly ‘donchi kubeba’ so let those who have ears to hear listen. Lupiah Banda can start packing his bags and Thandiwe can pull her chitenge tighter.
