    You're being blatantly idiotic here by plainly ignoring the fact that a large percentage of the population COULD NOT VOTE - mainly due to being too young to vote. GEDDIT?

    Ultimately your argument is completely invalid. Geddit?

    Actually that comment was for the other oke .

    Ignoring the insults...

    Whites estimation in 1992 were a little more then 5 million.
    At that time their life expectancy was around 73 average.
    This is a group not known for many kids.
    As per wiki 2.8 million voted...3.3million was registered.
    Mostly older people vote,a global fact.
    Your argument assuming that almost 2 million whites were children.Highly unlikely

    Well, until you can tell us how many were children, I think it'd be wiser not to go around insinuating that that the majority of whites were not for change.

    Sadly, things have gone downhill from there...
    Ja, things would have been so much better if we kept the NAT's and apartheid in place.

    Without insult and sorry however 'highly unlikely' is right up there with your other incorrect estimate.
    Go and check the data.

    Well I was to young to remember it, but given all the propaganda at the time and the press being controlled by the Nats, I actually wonder how many whites really knew what they were voting for or what it was about.

    Well show me the data.You just can't have a 5 million strong group with a life expectancy of average 73 at the time to have 2 million children.Dude,older people are the biggest voters,worldwide standard.Your argument also suggests that all adult whites registered.

    Says who, you who said there were 10 million whites around the patch at the time?
    I never said the figure was 2 million kids, you just did. I think though you will be surprised at what it is.

    You have no decency to reference it yourself, you are just trolling now.

    http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/South...ferendum,_1992

    85% turn out.

    http://www.idea.int/vt/countryview.cfm?CountryCode=ZA

    85% again in 1994

    And in 2009 it declined to 56%


    85% is not bad if you think about remote voting stations were not as wide spread as they are now.
    No I'm not rude, just honest.

    Yeah, they should've let the unregistered voters vote too.
