DECISION TIME

30th October 2026

Most voters on November 4 won’t be as emotional as the ANC’s Fikile Mbulula, who broke down after the Constitutional Court ruled that the ANC’s failure to click a ‘Submit as Final’ button on the Electoral Commission of South Africa’s system was not fatal to the inclusion of 181 candidates across six Eastern Cape municipalities. Nevertheless, South Africans should definitely not be impassive about their democratic rights and should exercise these by making an unmistakably clear X next to their preferred candidate and party.
