What will Cope realistically achieve this election?

What do you think Cope will realistically achieve this election?
I'm hoping that they can get around atleast 5% of the national vote,sure it does not sound like much but that around 5% away from the ANC.They are a new party so one cannot expect too much from them.

The more votes the ANC loses the better.

 

[The_Pumpkin_King]

7-13%

 

[dappled]

I expect closer to 10%. Perhaps more.

 

[theratman]

10% would be ideal but will boatloads of ex-ANC supporters vote Cope as they know little about them.
I'm just afraid that Ex-anc voters will end up voting ANC anyway(rather than cope)because they don't like Zuma but still have belief in the ANC.

 

[genetic]

7-11% is my guess.

 

[Bona Botse]

20%

 

[JustAsk]

Anything better than the DA,but then again i think botox won't get the normal amount of white vote,so i'll change it to...much better than the da.

 

[theratman]

I think the DA will have atleast 1/3rd more votes than Cope,the Da re well established.

 

[limnos]

I was listening to eNEWS this morning and they reckon anything between 7%-10%...

 

[Pooky]

21%

 

[theratman]

Cope are the dark horse,they could go really well or crash and burn...

 

[Serqet]

i think they are going to surprise ppl by getting more votes than expected.

 

[Syndyre]

i think they are going to surprise ppl by getting more votes than expected.

Hopefully ex-ANC votes.

 

[Dark Agent]

I guess
22% ANC
28% cope
38% DA
and the rest the small parties..

 

[ToxicBunny]

I'll be surprised if the DA break the 20% barrier...
and the same goes for COPE....

Anc should still get over 50%.. but hopefully not much more than that.

 

[Morgoth]

my guess is
Anc almost 50 or so
cope 20%
da 18%

 

[Phenom]

I hope that DA and COPE form an alience to overthrow the ANC, provided that they, counted together would have enough votes to beat anc


Make an intersting team, with Zille as president

a very sucessful ying-yang

 

[EtienneK]

11%

 

[Paulr]

Imagine if Cope gets enough votes, along with the DA, so that the ANC doesn't get 50%. That would be one for the history books!!

 

[RetroBok]

Imagine if Cope gets enough votes, along with the DA, so that the ANC doesn't get 50%. That would be one for the history books!!

Maybe the Alliance of COPE and the DA has existed all along. They are the Third Force!
