The ANC has an ambitious plan to attain 65% of the votes and ensure 75% of registered voters who will pitch up to vote in the eThekwini metro and the key provinces of Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal.
The ANC is aiming for 65% in the Durban-based metro, where it lost power, forcing it into a coalition with smaller parties in the 2021 local government elections.
It is looking for a similar outcome in Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal, despite external polls indicating a further drop in support for the party, since it decreased in support in the last election cycle.
