Support for South Africa’s ruling African National Congress (ANC) has continued to wane ahead of next month’s elections, according to a recent Ipsos poll. The survey shows the ANC at 40.2% voter support, down from 43% in October. That coincides with mixed results for the ANC in 11 by-elections across South Africa this week, where the party retained three seats and gained one, mirroring the Democratic Alliance’s performance.
