SACP concerned for ANC at 2021 and 2024 polls
8 November 2019
The South African Communist Party (SACP) has painted a bleak picture of the ANC's chances of securing a mandate to govern when the votes for the 2021 municipal elections and 2024 general polls have been counted.
The communist party's concerns are detailed in its draft discussion document, prepared for consideration at its fourth special national congress to be held next month.
In the document, the SACP concedes it will need to look into broadening its support base among communities if it plans to survive beyond its alliance with the ANC.
The document also details how the organisation should consider contesting the local government elections on its own.
