The African National Congress (ANC) recorded its worst electoral performance in municipal elections, garnering only slightly over 30 percent of the total votes, according to the electoral commission’s announcement on Sunday. This result marks a significant decline for the party, which has been a dominant force in South African politics since the end of apartheid.
The ANC’s substantial drop in support highlights a growing discontent among voters, who have turned to other political alternatives amidst a changing political landscape.
