"South Africa's ANC Faces Historic Defeat in Pivotal Election"
TL;DR Summary
Early results from South Africa's national election indicate the African National Congress (ANC) may lose its majority for the first time since 1994, with only 42% of the vote counted so far. This election is seen as a referendum on the ANC's three-decade rule, with voter turnout projected at 70%. If the ANC's vote share drops below 50%, it may need a coalition to remain in power. Final results are expected by Sunday.
