We begin with the 2026 Local Government Elections, which took place on 4 November. Elections are an important part of our democracy because they provide citizens with an opportunity to choose the people who will represent them in local government and make decisions about the communities in which they live.
However, beyond the political campaigns and election results, the actual experience at voting stations provides another perspective on how people engage with the electoral process. One of our reporters was deployed at the Wits Old Mutual voting station on election day, where she had an opportunity to observe the voting process and engage with the developments on the ground.
