Nearly three weeks before the general election, hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of potential voters, are battling to decide which party to entrust their vote to.
Partly, this is because while voters are genuinely disenchanted and disillusioned with the ANC, they are sceptical of opposition parties. Many voters have convinced themselves that opposition parties in their current form and shape are not viable alternatives.
