They're still better off than 2019 above 20%. All other MPC okes are struggling to break 2%...

They've increased in FS so far. They've won votes elsewhere in WC where they might've lost to PA. They're not doing too bad in GP. They're doing well in MP.

I mean.. they didn't loose 15% of their voter base in one election cycle... so that's good.

Definitely FS, remained the same in WC which is actually an almost unheard achievement given that the criminal gangsters (PA) wanted to get their filthy hands on the precious provincial government account. They will likely increase in KZN as well with Durban vote finally coming in. Also staying stagnant in Gauteng is fine given that you probably can add Action SA vote share to the DA vote and get the true DA vote share of Gauteng.

Interesting, had a quick look and this is how the DA fare (so far)
EC: DA(-2)
FS: DA(+4)
GP: DA (+1)
KZN: DA(+2)
LM: DA(+1.5)
MP: DA(+4)
NC: DA(-4)
NW: DA(+1)
WC: DA(-3)

Nope. You need to understand that the ANC do not exist to serve the people but is one of the grandest looting schemes of all time. Lots of corrupt people have their livelihoods tied to the ANC being in power. It's a vast apparatus that includes people at the local council, provincial and national level as well as the civil servants within these departments who "guide" work to their corrupt friends.

One of the few things you do actually seem to understand

this is where you and your anc get it all so wrong.
the party is there to serve the people - the people are not there to serve the party.

the people notice when things like health get a large budget cut, but blue light brigades and "vip" protection get massive increases.

the party let down the people, and the people responded !

I have said this previously and got seriously lambasted for it at the time, although it seems with time people now see the sense in it.

It depends though, ANC and DA, at the time it was to shut out the EFF, this time it is now serious since we now have to deal with Zuma who is even worse than the EFF.

IFP, ANC and DA are very close in numbers in KZN so hopefully they don't waste any time, just hope the IFP don't go full tribal.

Nationally the ANC /DA won't make sense as their policy positions are just too different, so maybe a more humble EFF, I would still prefer the PA to be in the mix, strictly for the illegal immigration thing, they can sit down and tone the rhetoric down, but it is a fact that the ANC on its own is not committed to solving that crisis.

Is fear mongering all the ANC has left?

The EFF is a product of the ANC. MK and Zuma are products of the ANC. 100%. Through and through. Their party DNA, is inherited from the ANC. They were born and bred and weaned in the ANC. The EFF and Zuma's MK can't do a thing split out into 10% parties, that they didn't do 10 times worse while they were cozily ensconced in the rotten heart of the ANC.

What can they do that we haven't gotten used to suffering for more than 20 years? The only thing - Annoy and weaken the ANC, which is plenty welcome in my book.

I'm not surprised anymore when ANC fanatics ignore negative consequence of the ANC's words and deeds. The tree is crooked and diseased, but some seem to be nostalgic about it. However, repeatedly ignoring it's rancid fruit? Tsk... Some just can't learn it seems.

Hold the **** up. You're blaming... the voters? :ROFL: The same voters that came together all these years? Same voters that voted the ANC into power in 1994 and kept them in power the years after... those people are the problem?

Not the party, not the state of the country, not the endless problems... but the voters?

Dude it had genuniely not occurred to me up until this point... but I just realised you're probably a high-ranking ANC member. It explains so much. Honoured to have you on the forum.

We are still encouraged by the fact that the DA hasn't benefitted anything meaningful from our decline and still remains a 20% party, the other Moonshot partners also crashed spectacularly, showing that our people were not moved by their WMC sponsored agenda.

20% of your "press statement" was focused on the DA. 20% man. With the way things are looking, that's the same percentage the ANC will lose this year. You must focus your efforts more wisely, perhaps the party would do better.

It's sickening. Clearly didn't want change. Clearly wanted things to remain exactly the same, because: "Looting is lekker" [sic]
