Talk:2023 Democratic Republic of the Congo general election

Results
I just added the definitive results by the constitutional court here (preliminary results at roughly 1:32:00 then definitive ones at 1:47:00). There's a few inconsistencies, though. The total of valid votes is claimed at 17,773,943 but the addition of all candidates give 17,773,911. And Moïse Katumbi is said to have 18.08% when it's calculated at 18.32% despite others candidates percentages fitting, and I double checked his number. It's from a vidéo source, though, so maybe I misheard something. The president of the court is also hesitant, making errors when reading then correcting himself. There's also a third remaining error when he give 0.04% to a candidate whose votes share is 0.08%, then 0.08% to the very next candidate whose vote share is 0.04%, so I assume this one is merely him interverting the lines when reading. Anyways, hopefully there will be a written source to dispel these errors. Aréat (talk) 07:17, 13 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you for transcribing the results and adding them to the article; and also for posting this message on the inconsistencies (which I did not notice until today). Unfortunately the president of the court did make many errors and was prompted to correct himself, more for the voter count errors than the percentage errors.  I believe that you did miss-hear some counts:  70,099 votes for Radjabho instead of 70,089 and 13,974 for Masalu instead of 13954.  However, there still were some inconsistencies.
 * The court was very clear that the changes to the preliminary results was simply to subtract from each candidates vote count the votes they received in the two territories (Masi-Manimba and Yakoma) that were annulled by the CENI for the other elections. All these vote counts were available at the CENI website and I did the correction myself and updated the article.  The vote counts now agree with the court ones except for a few that are off by one.  The percentages are calculate by the template and do add up unlike the court ones.  The other values automatically calculated by the template do now agree with the court ones.
