Why vote when it feels as though one person cannot change anything? In this TedXDurban x SMWX talk, Dr Sizwe Mpofu-Walsh challenges that argument by comparing voting to applause: its power comes from individual voices joining together, not from any one person deciding the outcome. He explores the make-up of South Africa’s electorate, highlighting the electoral weight of Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal and the gap between women’s participation and their representation in political leadership. Sizwe then explains his polling-average methodology and shares his predictions for the 2026 local government elections, assessing the ANC’s potential decline, the DA’s prospects in the major cities and the MK Party’s strength in eThekwini. From coalition possibilities to the contest over Cape Town’s outright majority, he examines how the political map could change—and why the collective power of voting matters far more than the influence of any single ballot.
