Comments

In my experience, the electoral commission is one of the few South Africa entities that make such datasets so easily available for public use (and providing information that is machine readable). The standard licence is restrictive, only allowing for personal use. could not locate how the results were "machine readable" or "available in bulk downloads: only PDFs found: https://www.elections.org.za/content/IEC-Downloadable-Documents/
