The Political Realignment in South Africa: A New Path Forward?

He sets the stage by recalling historical voting patterns and the transformation of political parties since 2004, when the African National Congress (ANC) enjoyed overwhelming support with 69% of the votes. Fast forward to today, and the ANC's popularity has plummeted to around 30%. This decline raises critical questions about the effectiveness and appeal of current political entities.
