2026 local government elections real time results and updates

Exactly why a coalition with the DA is in the ANCs interest. It can make all 128 of those in leading become mayoral control.

There are also plenty other options, for example, the ANC doesn't need the DA to govern the two metros Mangaung and BCM, I am certain that is the case with a majority of the 128.

It's Habibi's opinion dude, he is allowed to have it, I also have mine about why Zille should never be allowed to even get a sniff of the Mayoral chain.

It’s a simple question. Do you agree with that was said or not?

Because she would do a good job, and so put the ANC to shame after they had it for 25 years and led it to rot and ruin.
Yeah I agree with you on that

Don't bother, he has a lot to say until cornered, then claims the right to speak when he feels like it.

You see? You also have an opinion, isn't that wonderful?

Does Herman have a record of turning a city around and making it much better than it was?

No he has unfinished business. Apparently it wasn't enough to give us Shadrack Sibiya, he wanted to give us more...

Which city did Zille turn around?

 

[Nom Chompsky]

Which city did Zille turn around?

Cape Town as before she was elected, we had the awful Mfeketo who didn't know her arse from her elbow.

Cape Town.

Yet you talk down to Zille and Steenhuizen?? What's the difference?
Your racism showing through there bud?

Surely politicians should be ready to be criticised, or are they gods to be bowed down to according to you?

Nah, don't believe the hype, Cape Town has always been a tale of two cities, an elite enclave for whites and slums for blacks and coloureds, Zille found it like that and left it like that, there was no turning around that happened in Cape Town.

Over 30 years after democracy, the constitutional court said the DA administration has done nothing to address the ills of apartheid there, so what exactly was Zille turning around?

They can't do that. It opens the way for anyone to point a gun at their head. No party that believes in democracy will allow another party to make leadership demands, it violates every democratic principle...

That's my worry. But on the other hand if they manage to make a good, stable deal with ASA nationwide it could deal a massive blow to ANC.

Because DA and ASA will have to cooperate in Emfuleni, Potch, Mogale, EKH, ETH, NMB, etc to keep the ANC out completely.

Every single city in South Africa is a tale of two cities Champ - most run for 30 years by your ANC. It is not just Cape Town.

The DA at least ploughs resources into coloured and black areas, dedicating a large portion of the budget to these areas.

Just last year they upgraded I think it was the sewerage infrastructure, they spent huge money to upgrade.

Stop talking nonsense.

BCM sure.

MAN could go either way tho.

No, you see the narrative is mos "But DA govern well, so why Khayelitsha not Sandton?"

And what's comical is places like Khayelitsha that are very oppressed by the DA have started to walk over to the DA. Townships like Evaton and Sedibeng in GP walked over entirely.

But leave him be, all the ANC has left is racial epithets. And that's why they're at 30% nationally.

There's GNU implications if they do that, and I don't think they want to go down that rabbit hole. The ANC itself doesn't seem to favour a deal with ASA anyway...
