CAPE TOWN - The Northern Cape has officially announced its results and opposition parties have failed in their bid to bring the ANC below the 50% mark.
It became one of the most hotly contested provinces in the nation in the run-up to the polls, with opposition parties making a concerted effort to bring the ANC below the 50% mark.With all the votes counted and captured, it's managed 57% of the vote. DA support has grown considerably in the province to just shy of 26% and support for the EFF has also mushroomed, winning almost 10% of the provincial vote.
The FF+ has also doubled its support in the province but off a fairly low base, so it's coming in as the fourth largest party in the province.The majority of its residents speak Afrikaans as a first language.
