The ANC continued its 'resurgence' in the Northern Cape while the MK party claimed interference hampered its candidate in Msunduzi.The African National Congress registered two significant by-election victories this week.
The ANC flipped the DA seat in the Hantam Municipality and held off the MK party in Msunduzi Municipality, with less than half of registered voters casting their ballots.Ward 7 in the Hantam Municipality, which covers Calvinia and the surrounding areas, was won by the DA in the 2021 municipal election.
Northern Cape Premier Zamani Saul was thrilled with the victory, noting how it was third ward in three months that the party had been able to claw back. The ANC had secured a majority in Msunduzi’s ward 2 in the 2021 elections and repeated the feat on Wednesday, although the MK party was not far behind.
