South African elections in the 1980s

[DC Al Fine]

Couple questions:

1) How free and fair were these elections (for the white electorate)?

2) NP and KP electorates seem fairly obvious. Any major differences between NRP and PFP supporters?

Hypothetically, how much of a swing would it have taken for either the Democrats or the Conservatives to win a plurality (or majority) of seats in 1989? I know the Nats had a very favourable map, but at some point the malapportionment and gerrymandering would approach dummymander territory.
