The Democratic Alliance (DA) is projected to fall short in Pretoria and Johannesburg, with ActionSA emerging as a major political force, mybroadband.co.za reports.

First projections show the African National Congress (ANC) maintaining strong support in the region, while opposition parties gain ground, according to mybroadband.co.za.

The political shifts come amid growing calls in Pretoria to replace the U.S. Ambassador as bilateral relations deteriorate, iol.co.za notes.
