2024 South African general election, 29 May:

Is there any reason why an ANC-EFF coalition would be unlikely? I know EFF split off from ANC, but I think ANC would be a better ideological match than DA or especially VF+.

If people like to do who should you vote for tests

8 African National Congress
7 Umkhonto we Sizwe
5 Economic Freedom Fighters
4 Rise Mzansi
3 Action SA
3 African Transformation Movement
2 Democratic Alliance
2 Freedom Front Plus
1 Inkatha Freedom Party
1 Patriotic Alliance

Interesting; for as much as I admire Nelson Mandela, I can’t say I would vote for today’s ANC. Maybe the DA? EFF, IFP, ATM, PA, and FF+ are a definite no. MK might be the worst of the bunch. Action SA doesn’t seem that great. Rise Mzansi doesn’t seem too bad, but I don’t know that much about them beyond this thread and their Wiki article.

And we have a new poll out today as well. This of course included Zuma's party. ANC still under 50% but with a slight bounce compared to that Ipsos poll.

Is MK a one man show, or are there other well-known people that could basically be figureheads for Zuma?
