Okay, also a little evidence for this claim too, please?

The minority of the population? of the voters? :confused:

But tonight seems to be Wild Baseless Statement night for you, so I'll understand if you don't get back to us.
 
The death penalty cannot come back, people. Get over it.

Ok my question is why not? Serious question actually. If a party got the required majority they could change the constitution? And why would political parties add it in their manifestos then?

Or do you mean morally it cannot come back?

I'm sure she would have been sponsored.. or paid by the party.. nothing wrong with that... :)
At least she doesn't arrive at Stadium rallies in an army helicopter like Zuma... on the news on Wednesday :eek:

Fine don't vote. But then you must acknowledge that you are SUPPORTING the ANC by doing so.

some facts:

14 April 2004 National Assembly Election

Registered Voters
20,674,926

Total Votes (Voter Turnout)


15,863,558 (76.7%)

Invalid/Blank Votes
250,887

Total Valid Votes
15,612,671

less than half the population is registered voters. Considering about 85%+ is black I deduced that less than 50% of blacks were registered. But I would try to find a source that indicates racial demographics as well.

You seem to have forgotten that you can only register if you're >18. :rolleyes:

maths genius in the building!:rolleyes:

did you count the population of under 18s?
and the foreign nationals that cant vote?
 
yes and 17million south africans are underage. But the Total Population is 49Million

So far the facts show that only 20.5million of the population older than 18 (32million) has registered to vote.

And only 75%(15million) of the 20.5million showed up to vote. That stil leaves 17 million eligable voters who didn't

The population in 2004 was 44 mil afaicr.

If 15.8 mil of the 20.5 registered voters voted, that leaves >5 million eligble voters who didn't, not 17 mil.

You're still making huge assumptions about the race of those that didn't vote.
