The African National Congress (ANC) won the final by-elections of 2024, gaining a ward previously held by the Democratic Alliance (DA) in the Northern Cape and retaining a ward in Kwazulu-Natal.
The African National Congress (ANC) has won the last by-elections of 2024, gaining a ward previously held by the Democratic Alliance (DA) in the Hantam Municipality in the Northern Cape and retaining a ward in Kwazulu-Natal from the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP). The ANC won ward 7 in the Hantam Municipality with 45.68% of the vote, compared to 38.44% in 2021. Voter turnout was 39.81%.
The ANC says these victories reflect the resilience, hard work and dedication of the ANC to serve the people, and that they affirm that the ANC remains the movement capable of advancing the daily needs of South Africans and delivering the change they seek. While it may be the festive season now, many South Africans have already turned to bulk buying to prepare for the long month of January
