I know it isn't exactly what this thread is for but I'd be interested to see all the election results in Helen Suzman's seat of Houghton please.  Was she ever in danger of not making it into parliament?

We were discussing her over the weekend here - she was a tremendously interesting personality.

What would be the worst case for South Africa hadn't they ended Apartheid?

Worst case?
Civil war in a nuclear armed state.  Even tighter sanctions leading to further unrest.  The world's black market for arms becoming even more awash with stolen South African armaments potentially including chemical weaponry.  The conflict could easily spillover to the north if SADF were to pursue their enemy over borders.

Not very nice.
