Last Massive Election Poll! Johnson Khan Arrest Update

To get the most of their voters out to vote is going to do the best, obviously. So, those are the qualifiers, the T's and C's with before which and by which we now get into this really fascinating polling data from Ipsos. And the first thing that I want to tell you is the national. Now, that might sound weird because this is a local government election. It's not for national government, it's not for the president, this voting, but it shows you where the country is at.

Which is fascinating because we're about to get deep into the weeds after the election results of who won the election. It's largely going to be the narratives are going to be like, who won this, who won this city? Who won this town? Who won this metro? Who won this mayorship? But the national pulse check, temperature check, thermometer check, whatever, is super interesting. And this is just extraordinary, right? Ipsos presented three pieces of data, right? The first one was from local government election 2021. This was before MK even existed. In that local government,

Election, the ANC got 47.5%. In Ipsos' first wave of polls this year, ANC 31, and then their second wave of polls, the one that we're talking about now that just came out, that was from last month and a bit of this month, the ANC was on just 30%. Catastrophic collapse for the African National Congress. And then, if you go to the Democratic Alliance, as per Ipsos, they were on 19.9 in 2021, 25 earlier this year, as per Ipsos, and 28%.

As of September, October this year. If Ipsos is even close to right, amongst just registered voters, the African National Congress is just 2% clear of the DA right now, as per registered voters. Now, remember, as I said, all the qualifiers, it depends on turnout. A local government election is not the same as a national one. The machinery to elect a president at a national level is not kicked in for any of these parties. But as per EPS, as of registered voters, as of twice this year, the DA right now is just.
