South Africa’s ruling African National Congress (ANC) recorded its worst election result since 1994, winning 30.76% of the vote in municipal elections held on November 4, down from 45.6% in 2021. The Democratic Alliance came second with 24.64%. The ANC secured an outright majority in only 53 of the 213 councils, while no party won a majority in 135, setting the stage for complex coalition negotiations. The ANC’s decline is attributed to voter frustration over deteriorating public services, water and electricity problems, corruption, and poor governance. The results put pressure on the party to improve services and regain voters’ trust ahead of the 2029 elections.
