Lets see how it goes. I guess.

Last time around 17,919,966 of 23,181,997 people votes 77 % voted over all.

BEST CASE SCENARIO

I was shocked to see the majority of voters looked over 25 to me so I wonder if the youngsters don't care?

in my queue i saw 2 youngsters....others all late 30's and up

All over the world the guys under 25 don't bother expect in Australia where it is law to vote and if you don't you get whacked with a big fine, no matter where in the world you are. UK general election has about a 32% turnout

The over 40's are worried about their kids futures and pensions

The under 30's just don't worry !!!

I was a child of the revolution and was eligible to vote from 1987 - In that time I only missed voting once - The youngsters should realize that five years down the line not voting might just come back to haunt them - Perhaps they don't understand how South Africa has changed and how important it is to keep the ANC on it's toes as those that can remember the riots, bombs etc of the 80's and 90's know. If the people are not looked after that cycle can happen again but this time without any racial connotations.

Already hearing incidents of people being taxied into some areas...

I like the Australian law. I wonder why all countries don't adopt it:S

My children do not have an option. Seriously, I tell them....go vote or else !!! Is not an option.
