It is the end of ANC hegemony, but which could easily have gone another way and seen an ANC/EFF or ANC/MK coalition which would have led SA down a very much darker path. Fortunately we have royally lucked out. Assuming the DA can pull it off, this is their chance to show to skeptics that they can be trusted in government, and open the floodgates for less partisan or extremist voting patterns going forwards. The door to positive change has been prised open.

Perhaps the very best news in this election was simply that the results were respected, by everyone. I have long said this: you do not know whether you live in a democracy until the ruling party has lost an election. Well, whatever else you can throw against the ANC, they did respect the election results, and parties that did contest the results did so via the prescribed channels, instead of burning down half the country. This sets a very hopeful precedent for the future. I don't expect the new government to do much of anything; the previous administration(s) pretty much destroyed the state apparatus which governments use to do things, and so, even if Steenhuisen became president and the DA got most of the ministries, there would be limits to what they could do. One thing that a government CAN do is to perhaps at least repeal some of the idiotic legislation that stands in the way of growth. Dare we hope? In a general way, the thing that excites me most is precisely how un-excited the country is about the whole thing. Perhaps South Africans have finally become cynical enough about government that they no longer hope to find their messiah in a politician. It's as if everyone is beginning to realize that in Africa, you have to help yourself, because government is never going to do it, and descending into perpetual victimhood is no way to plan for the future.

Ramaphosa knows why he keeps Mantasha and Matashile there, because they knows of his corruption, but the DA is thwre now to watch them

Aunty Pat has serious files on people.

With the position of Agricultural Minister when he goes to farms at least he might find peace there for a while because at least the cows will not give him a hard time.

Everyone in that coalition should have demanded a reduction in cabinet and proportionality in terms of NA seats.

Will never understand this. Only 40% of the country voted for the ANC, yet they still have 60% in cabinet. (unless my understanding os wrong). This makes the whole voting thing pointless. The whole point of this election was to break / git rid of the ANC entirely since they have broken everything that can be possibly broken. Whe the voters have spoken. yet our voices are not heard. So what should change / be done so this stops? We can't another 4 years of ANC, we simply can't. Our country is almost gone.

[@legendaryclarity]

I think that's because the GNU parties got about 69% of the vote, so 40/69 = 0.58 approx. So out of the governing parties ANC has about 60% power.

[@quicksilverxt]

@@legendaryclarity at that is my problem they still have 60% power. They can still continue the "gravy train"

[@esk2k5]

@@quicksilverxt just remember...if it wasnt for the MK party, the ANC would've got far more votes and probably would've had over 50% to run the country without forming a coalition

[@juanitalouw3958]

Yeah - I have a lot more hope for the country with the new GNU....
