Hi<br>
<br>
I would like to replicate the IEC's voting station finder -<br>
<a rel="nofollow" href="http://maps.elections.org.za/vsfinder/" target="_blank">http://maps.elections.org.za/vsfinder/</a><br>
<br>
Does anyone know whether the voting district shape files are available anywhere?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Adi<br>
