South Africa's ruling African National Congress (ANC) is leading in the municipal elections, but with around 30.76% of the votes, it has posted its worst result ever. The Democratic Alliance (DA) is in second place with approximately 25%. The ANC's poor showing comes amidst anger over crime, corruption, and failing basic services. The results are still provisional and could change as more votes are counted.
