Quick Glance: Support for South Africa's ANC around 40% before elections

An Ipsos poll revealed that support for South Africa's governing African National Congress (ANC) has dropped to just over 40%, weeks before an election that could bring about significant political change.

While the ANC is still expected to secure the most votes on May 29, falling below 50% would require seeking coalition partners to govern, marking the first such alliance since Nelson Mandela led the party to power 30 years ago.

The survey was based on face-to-face interviews with 2,545 registered voters across all nine provinces in March and April, boasting a margin of error of 1.9% at a 95% confidence level.

The poll also highlighted rising voter discontent due to issues like unemployment, corruption, crime, and poor services, with the ANC considering potential coalition partners such as the economically liberal DA and the far-left Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF).

Quick Glance: Young South Africans Reconsidering Nelson Mandela's Heritage

Kenneth Khoza is canvassing near Vilakazi Street for the uMkhonto we Sizwe party, named after the former armed wing of the African National Congress.

Some young South Africans are questioning Mandela's legacy due to the deep disillusionment in the country marked by unemployment, crime, and racial inequality.

There is a growing critique of the ruling ANC party, as some believe Mandela and the leadership of the liberation era should have taken more radical measures to correct the injustices of the apartheid era.

While the ANC is expected to emerge as the largest party in the elections, polls suggest increasing dissatisfaction with its performance, potentially ushering in a new era of coalition politics.

Quick Glance: Court Rejects Delayed ANC Bid to Block Use of MK Trademark by Zuma's MK Party

The KwaZulu-Natal High Court has dismissed the ANC’s bid to prohibit Jacob Zuma’s MK party from using the names and symbols of its disbanded anti-apartheid military wing.

The judgment handed down allows the recently-established MK party, led by former president Jacob Zuma, to use the 'uMkhonto we Sizwe' name and symbols.

The judgment highlighted that the ANC only considered the consequences of the name and symbols' use after Zuma publicly declared his support for the MK party.

The court deemed the ANC's delayed application as 'self-created' due to the responsibility falling on party secretary general Fikile Mbalula to ensure timely action.

Ramaphosa tells ANC it needs 14 million votes to win elections outright, as party marshalls ministers to tout successes

Quick Glance: Ramaphosa Urges ANC to Secure 14 Million Votes for Clear Victory

The ANC has mobilized all its ministers to 'aggressively communicate its success stories' in the critical campaigning weeks ahead of the May 29th national elections.

President Cyril Ramaphosa stated in a leaked recording of the national executive committee meeting last week that the party would need 14 million votes for a clear victory, compared to the previous 10 million.

ANC head of elections Mdumiseni Ntuli delivered a report on the party's campaign battle plan to remain in government, emphasizing the need to strengthen the base and win back disgruntled voters.

Ramaphosa expressed concern during the meeting that some NEC members had not met their commitments towards campaigning for an outright majority and emphasized consequences for those who fail to meet campaign work targets.
