The wrong way of thinking
November 24th, 2008 | by kilps |The SABC reports that the Merafong Anti-Dermacation Forum says the Khutsong community will not vote in next year’s election unless incorporated into Gauteng. Remember they did the same thing in the 2006 elections – when just 123 people voted.
There are two sides to this. On the one, national coverage of Khutsong has been guaranteed. On the other, this isn’t really how democracy is meant to work.
This proclamation implies that regardless of what happens the ANC will be supported and is far less significant for the ANC than, say, an endorsment for COPE. Too bad.
