It is 24 hours to general elections in South Africa, the country’s sixth since returning to democracy post-apartheid era 25 years ago. But just before wednesday is what is called a special vote.
Around 770 000 South Africans are expected to cast their special vote between yesterday Monday and today Tuesday, an opportunity that was approved by the electoral body to enable those who may be unable to cast their ballot on election day.
