		On 14 April millions of ordinary South Africans voted in the country's third democratic national elections, emphatically declaring the importance of democracy in the struggle to defeat poverty and overturn the legacy of apartheid and colonialism.
		Election 2004 represented an overwhelming expression of confidence in the ANC from the fl working class and poor.
		Turnout in african townships and informal settlements would have been negatively affected by the failure of the IEC to provide equal services to all voters, so that the disincentives to vote were generally higher among africans.

	South African general election: ANC wins overwhelming majority
		The African National Congress’s (ANC) overwhelming majority, nearly 70% of the vote, has predictably been hailed by its leadership and most of the media as a ringing endorsement of its policies.
		Last year already, a survey of Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) affiliates revealed that one third of workers would support the formation of a workers’ party to contest the elections.
		The Cosatu leadership, as part of the Tripartite Alliance with the ANC and the South African Communist Party (which received only 4% support in the Cosatu survey), once again campaigned for an ANC vote despite their humiliation by Mbeki and SACP central committee members in his cabinet during the anti-privatisation general strike in 2002.

		South African officials say crime syndicates selling the country's identity documents and passports for as little as $77 have operated inside Home Affairs for years.
		South African Police Commissioner Jackie Selebi called attention to the illegal acquisition of passports when he told the National Assembly's safety and security committee that a number of people with "evil intentions against this country" were arrested here and sent home shortly before April 14 elections.
		But two suspects who were later released — a South African and a Jordanian married to a South African — told the AP they were questioned about an alleged al-Qaeda plot to attack American and British targets during the election, which coincided with the 10th anniversary of the end of apartheid.

		Xingwana told reporters in South Africa's northern province of Limpopo it was time to kick-start the process of land restitution if the government were to meet its promises.
		Her comments were met with a mixture of surprise and anger from groups representing South Africa's land-holding farmers, about 90 percent of whom are white.
		According to the South African government, slow progress in restitution could largely be blamed on white farmers who were unwilling to negotiate a fair price for their land, while some had dug their heels in deeper and refused to negotiate at all.

		The South African government did not fail to see the growing cohesion of the freedom movement, and tried to take steps to mute the rising chorus of voices demanding a change in what they had come to think of as "their" country.
