NCD Regional counting resumes

Counting has resumed for the National Capital District Regional seat.

There was a long recess after count 14 ended at 8.30am today.

Counting was expected to resume straight after the next counting team settled in for their shift at 9am however, it was delayed again.

This was due to confusion among officials and police personnel as to how many scrutineers were allowed in the counting venue.

Count 15 commenced at 3pm.

So far, the total progressive tally after count 14:
