in all coalition the talks that's floating around, they may just tell the DA -ok, sure...but ....your leader needs to be black and female....

I don't think it's their place to decide who the leaders of other parties need to be? The leader is elected through party processes, same as them.

If the roles were reversed they wouldn't appreciate being told that the leader mustn't be Ramaphosa. How does the ANC now go about changing their leader on the whims of a coalition partner? The process of electing leadership is clearly defined, as is the DA's...

Unfortunately, I cannot any longer see the whole ward results on News 24, only the leading party

Newcastle - Ward 31: Team Sugar (?) won with 31 percent of the vote
Mtubatuba - Ward 4: ANC won with 40 percent of the vote
Cederberg Ward 6: Cederberg Eerste won with 44 percent of the vote (<-- note DA has decided not to stand here in order to give their coalition partner (CE) the best chance of winning. Hope the gangster party [PA] flop here)
Cape Agulhas Ward 5: DA won with 60 percent of the vote

Yeah, just the muni results but not the ward results. Was good when it lasted.

Yeah, they're following the same tactic as with the DA by-election there. CE and VF+ backed DA. Now, DA and VF+ back CE. They should keep the ward.
