With vote counting in full swing this morning, the eThekwini tally needs greater precision this year. A security stamp and unmarked ballots were stolen from a voting station outside the city on Tuesday night.

A new security stamp was issued for Wednesday.

The IEC's presiding officer at the Mnyameni Secondary School allegedly left sensitive material, including the voters' roll, in a guard house without a lock.

Police said there was no overnight guard.

On Wednesday, the officer arrived to find an open school gate and no documents in the guard house.
