With nearly two-thirds of the election results announced, the EFF looks set to get in the region of 10% or more of the overall vote.
Birthday wishes were streaming in on Thursday for the spokesperson of the EFF, Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, whose party is projected to grow substantially in this year’s elections.
In 2014 the EFF got just over 6% of the vote nationally, which bagged them 25 seats in parliament. This year, they are heading towards 10% of the vote or more, which will give them upwards of 40 seats in the National Assembly, where they were already a very noticeable and loud presence in their red workers’ overalls for the past five years.
