Pretoria, 24 April-(ANA)-The African National Congress (ANC) is heading for a decisive victory in South Africa's general election, taking more than a two-thirds majority of the vote, reports say.
With more than 12 million votes counted, the ANC has 66.89%.
The Democratic Alliance is in second place with 16% and the newly formed Congress of the People (Cope) has 7.6%.
Results from some big metropolitan areas, including Soweto, are still awaited. The final results will be declared on Saturday.
Last night, ANC leader Jacob Zuma told jubilant supporters that the ANC had emerged in a position of strength despite being belittled by its opponents in the election campaign. (ANA)
