The DA cadre is annoyed because General Mkhwanazi has fans who bought him a cow, while no one has offered to buy him even a goat or chicken.

I am happy you have accepted that your President is a liar, and there are other things to discuss today. We have moved.

Quite a few by-elections today. We start off with a ward in rural EC where they vote ANC until the End Times, so not much discussion is needed there. In Gauteng, the ANC should retain the Soweto ward as the opposition is highly split between 5 different parties, with no clear party in 2nd place. Very little difference between the 2021 vote share (in brackets) and the 2024 provincial vote share, despite the inclusion of the MK.
Like in EC, the Limpopo ward is super safe for the ANC. In the North West, the Forum 4 Service Delivery (a local party) made significant inroads into the ANC vote share. However, they are not competing in the by-election, so the ANC should gain quite a lot here.
Two by-elections in the rural Western Cape. Although in 2024, it was a close three-way race, I expect the races today to be straight ANC v PA races with the DA losing vote share, as has been the pattern since the 2024 election.

I saw the DA sent Gwarube to Noordgesig, so Zille is most definitely not going to launch her campaign there. There is however another by election coming up in one of the larney suburbs, it will probably be that one.

I am waiting for Zille's entry into Soweto for campaign. Forum is gonna be lit.

Yes, that's the only social media post I saw about the campaign so it does not appear they are putting much effort into it, unlike with Brink/Mamelodi by-election.

Even the crime Experts who go on TV to influence the narrative were funded by Cat Matlala, no wonder the same Experts waged a relentless campaign to discredit Mkhwanazi and the good job he was doing.

@TheChamp Any comments about the user pays principle?
AGSA stated that its analysis identified nearly 1.1 million TV licence numbers associated with non-payment. “Of these, a significant portion (801,604, i.e. 73%) was associated with government entities and government officials,” it said.

Surprising information about who kisses TV licences goodbye in South Africa
The Auditor-General of South Africa has found that a large portion of TV licence holders that aren’t paying are linked to government entities and officials.

She doesn't need to campaign in the larney suburb, they're already voting for her...

This lot haven't quite figured out that the Interwebs never forgets.
Their Kremlin derived education didn't cover the Interwebs.

He's anti it cos they keep making his mafia GLM look like the criminals that they are... and that upsets his fragile little RDF.

So much of desperate spin to try negate from the fact that he's been caught out lying, again.
