1509 telephone interviews, probably from the DA, who are busy calling people, out of a possible 15 million + voters, and the ANC is suddenly losing support. How interesting!

The Economic Freedom Fighters had 9 percent support in all three areas, while 18 percent of respondents said they were undecided.   Support for the DA in all three cities was 3 percentage points higher than in a June 6-7 eNCA poll, while backing for the ANC was unchanged in Johannesburg and slipped in Tshwane and Nelson Mandela Bay.   The poll, which was conducted on June 20 and 21 and based on 1,509 telephone interviews, is the latest evidence that the ANC is losing support.     From: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-06-23/anc-trails-in-south-african-capital-and-johannesburg-poll-shows                                                                       __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 13696 (20160623) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com -- -- You are subscribed.
