Polymarket was surprisingly accurate in the NYC mayoral race - it had predicted Mamdani winning before any official polling called in his favor

What a long schlep, this is why nothing happens with any urgency in government, it starts with this sort of culture. By the time these guys go to the communities, come back, go through another round of selection, announce who the actual candidates will be, it will already be election day.

This is actually even worse than not announcing anyone at all. Because all these guys going into the community will be campaigning for themselves first, then for the party. The last thing that the communities want to deal with is even more factionalism...

Remember when we were told that expedience is a white supremacist trait?

Sjoe - They need to stop her from using Social media. It seems she really wants to piss people off.

Besides her comment being distasteful, she would still do well to take lessons from Dolly if she can, Mr Maree is still fairly healthy, assuming of course, now is the time for them to be taking care of each other while they are still both healthy, not for Zille to be behaving like a teenager in Joburg.

She might do this, I tell ya.

And you must appreciate Mr Maree's sacrifice for the nation. No matter how he loves her company, he has allowed her to be released into the wild streets of Jozi.

So then, since he was the Hawks boss, has he not laid charges and since he has seen this evidence has this investigation not been completed already?

What is Prince trying to distract everyone from I wonder.

He is acting like Zuma who started Moral Regeneration Movement, ironically.

  • Mokotedi was found guilty of three charges of serious misconduct in August 2021 by a disciplinary hearing chaired by Advocate Sumayya Tilly. [1, 2]
  • He was penalized for unlawfully ignoring directives to discipline a subordinate, Colonel Woolganathan “Biggs” Govender, who faced 21 allegations including extortion and kidnapping. [1, 2]
  • Mokotedi maintained his removal from the Hawks in December 2018 was politically motivated by Police Minister Bheki Cele and Hawks boss Godfrey Lebeya to block a major drug dealer's arrest rather than due to misconduct. [1]

I have nothing against anyone speculating on the case and its outcomes like the people on the link you shared. However, it's not up to media (all media) and PR companies to decide.
