A shock poll released by the Social Research Foundation (SRF) has revealed that the ANC
could lose close to half of its support in KwaZulu-Natal to the uMkhonto weSizwe (MK)

province had plummeted to 25%, down from 54% in the 2019 general elections. Conversely,

ANC's support. Phemelo speaks to Elections Analyst, Wayne Sussman who helps us make
