A multiracial vote is emerging behind South Africa’s Democratic Alliance (DA) opposition party in the important metropolitan areas, says Moeletsi Mbeki, who spoke at the Bureau for Economic Research conference in Johannesburg on May 27.

Mbeki, the entrepreneur brother of former South African President Thabo Mbeki, notes that the DA’s support in the Johannesburg metropolitan area rose 27% in the latest municipal elections, while that of the ruling African National Congress (ANC) declined by 15%. Mbeki says that the ANC is becoming a rural party, much like Zanu-PF in Zimbabwe.
