The latest poll by the Institute for Race Relations says the party could lose its majority in Gauteng and also, surprisingly, in KwaZulu-Natal
The final election poll conducted by the Institute for Race Relations indicates that the ANC could get below 55% and lose its majority in Gauteng and its stronghold of KwaZulu-Natal.
On a 70% turnout model, a scenario considered plausible for this week’s election, the ANC polled at 53%, while the DA was 24% —an increase from the 22.23% it received in 2014. The EFF would increase to 14% from the 6.35% it received at the last national election. This is seen to be the most fluid national election to date, in particular with regards to the ANC and EFF, who have traded support one way or another.
