Warning signs for the ANC on Voting Day?

The US goes through one of its turning points, so too South Africa is facing one of its turning points. And clearly, the world and South Africa will not be the same after this election. Now, another interesting thing I would think outside of the metros is how many councils will not be governed outright by any one party? Up to this point, we don't have a lot of those councils. But the question is: there are 257 in South Africa.

Could we see for the first time in South Africa's history as many as half of those councils being governed by some kind of coalition arrangement? That would really mean that the country is no longer a one-party territory, but it's a country that is now fully coalition country. I think we roughly have like 63 or so now. Could that double into the 110s, 120s, or even half of the 257 local councils? So that's something.

That I'll be looking out for. So, those are some of the questions as you consider the results and some of the storylines that I would be pursuing. After this, I want to take a quick chat to our resident analyst, Utzile Gadimeng, and we'll talk through the election, help you think through it, and then we'll be back tomorrow for results and rolling coverage. Utzile, here we are at the Results Operations Center. What are some of the things that you're going to be looking at in this election? Turnout, turnout, turnout, bro. I'm not going to even pretend.
