By noon today, the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) in the Western Cape will verify the official 2009 Provincial Election results.

The Democratic Alliance (DA) looks as if they have the Western Cape in the bag, as they secured over 51% of the votes in the most contested province.

Media waited with bated breath last night, as the IEC announced that by 11pm, the results would be verified.

However due to a computer failure at the Results Operation Centre (ROC), the results could only be released by midday.
