When you have power and not afraid to use it, unlike that useless ActionSA.

I wonder what would happen if they nominate someone from the junior partners of the Moonshot Coalition, are they allowed to stand for elections or must they be approved by the Leader of the Moonshot?
LOM Vs GLM ?

24 May By-elections:
Gauteng
Lesedi - Ward 8
Strong DA ward. Likely to hold. VF+ only realistic contender. Curious to see if VF+ will participate.

Ekhuruleni - Ward 25
Extremely strong DA ward. Likely to hold.

KZN
uMzimkhulu - Ward 12
Extremely strong ANC ward. IFP expected to sucker punch ANC and EFF. ANC is likely to hold with extreme losses.

ETH - Ward 73
Extremely strong DA ward. Likely to hold.


Mandeni - Ward 15
Extremely strong ANC ward. IFP expected to sucker punch ANC and EFF. ANC is likely to hold with extreme losses.

14 June By-elections:

Eastern Cape
Kou-Kamma - Ward 5
Usual ANC ward (50%). DA at 30%. PA at 9%. Curious to see what happens here. If DA takes the ward, they can take the muni off ANC with an IND and VF+.

Port St. Johns - Ward 2
Strong ANC ward. Likely to hold.

KZN

uMvoti - Ward 2
Usual ANC ward (47%). IFP is expected to take the ward (25%) going by trends.
 

Paywalled.

Here is the scheme as I see it; the ANC's Sutcliffe (he was a town planning lecturer at UKZN methinks) gambit whereby "richer" (white I guess) areas are picked apart and combined with more populous "poorer" (black I suppose) areas to negate mostly DA wins. Much moaning about it in eThekwini when Sutcliffe was mafia boss there.

20 years later and we still don't know the new road names and everyone including the media uses the old names in brackets.
