How the vote is moving
A live comparison of UPND’s 2026 share with its 2021 result, and NRPUP’s share with PF’s 2021 result as an opposition proxy.
Important: NRPUP and PF are not the same legal party. The pairing is an analytical comparison only, and the 2026 count is still incomplete.

ConfirmedHOW THIS WORKSFast enough for election night.
Fast enough for election night.
Careful enough for the record.
The dashboard checks the open election data feed every minute. Figures originate from announcements by the Electoral Commission of Zambia at the National Results Centre.
This is an independent presentation—not an ECZ website. If any figure differs from ECZ, the Commission’s record takes precedence.
