### Proportional Representation
|
||
|
||
* Half of the seats determined by provincial lists
|
||
|
||
<notes>
|
||
* = vote for party, party gets seats according to share of votes
|
||
* half of seats by voting on national lists, other half on provincial lists
|
||
* disadvantage: provinces quite large (9) → not really local
|
||
* possible disadvantage: no threshold → many small parties (not important,
|
||
why: next step)

### Domination of the ANC
|
||
|
||
* Historic Events
|
||
* Charismatic Leaders
|
||
* Constitutional Rules
|
||
|
||
Possible threat: Higher GDP per capita and education could be linked to voting
|
||
DA.
|
||
|
||
<notes>
|
||
* Historic: ANC is seen as party of liberation as it’s the first
|
||
democraticratically elected party
|
||
* Leaders: Nelson Mandela was a member of the ANC. His popularity helps the
|
||
ANC.
|
||
* Constitution: No (really) local representatives → regional parties cannot
|
||
gain many seats
