So, when are polls a valid indicator? From what I noticed in these threads, they're only used when it's the result people want to hear. Any-who...

When all other polls are within roughly 5% of each other.

Then you get this poll which is completely out and not even close to the others.

It means either they know something, literally no one else does. Or their methodology is completely off.

I’ll bet my bottom dollar it’s the latter.

It’s got nothing to do with the fact of a favorite party and being biased. I’d have the same objection if their polls showed the ANC below 40% - that’s just not going to happen.

Have you considered just perhaps that I've been following the polls more closely than you and therefore more confident I can spot nonsensical polls? By the way the same poll had the ANC at 11% in KZN which I also called out as nonsense.
 
Is anything going to change after the 29th just asking except load shedding?

Yes. There will be a new makeup in government and the ANC won’t have a majority.

If you’re expecting things to magically improve overnight after elections, then prepare to be disappointed. Even if we had a fully competent and non corrupt government it’s going to still take at least half a decade before we see any meaningful improvements to daily life.

Then choose wisely based on how you want the country to be and the party that most closely matches those principles or ideals and who has the best chance of actually making it a reality.

Yes, you live in the worst run metro in Gauteng yet you don't feel the impact of the bad DA governance that our people there are feeling, that is the DA difference, other parties are called mercenaries for pointing out the disparity in service delivery.
