Voting - South Africa - Western Cape Voting research - South Africa - Western Cape Bibliography: pages [156]-159. I have written this dissertation as an empirical study of the African National Congress' (ANC) 1994 election campaign in South Africa's Western Cape Province. Primarily, I address one overriding question: what are the principal reasons for and ramifications of the AN C's inability to win control of the province? I begin by exploring key factors concerning the history, demographics, electoral system and pre-campaign voter attitudes of the province that may have influenced how the party developed and implemented its strategy. I describe the evolution of the campaign, including strategic decisions made before and during its execution, and analyze the content of appeals to voters. I then assess the extent to which the above factors may have affected the campaign and examine the election results. I conclude by offering plausible implications of this case for future ANC campaigns in the Western Cape. 2016-03-07T04:11:46Z 2016-03-07T04:11:46Z 1997 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/17532 eng application/pdf Department of Political Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
