So the Electoral Commission of Zambia finally published [1] the comprehensive results of the just ended presidential by-elections. I decided to put up this post as a follow up to my previous posts on past presidential elections held in Zambia. Quite shocking how the voting pattern split the country into two.
I used Okular’s table selection feature [2] to scrap off content from the PDF document [3]—I was too tired to think of anything fancy—, Google Fusion Tables [4] to map the results, and recycled shapefile lookup information from before…
Vote distribution by district
Vote distribution by constituency [table “21” not found /]
