However, as the day progressed, the queues diminished and Mr Boitshwarelo expressed hope that the situation would improve.

He said so far voting was going well expect for minor hiccups due to the fact that some voters' names  were mispelt.

He however said they managed to resolve the problems and no one was denied the right to vote.
