| Decisive ANC win in S Africa poll |
| 2006-03-05 |
| South Africa's governing African National Congress has won a comfortable victory in local government elections. The ANC received 66% of the vote and controls five of the six major urban centres, according to final results. The opposition Democratic Alliance secured almost 15% of the vote and the Inkatha Freedom Party 7%. Turnout in Wednesday's polls was 48%. The national result achieved by the ANC is slightly down on the 70% it reached in the 2004 general election. |
