Polling centers Opens in South Africa for local government elections after days of Prelimnary Votings

The election is meant to serve as a test for President JACOB ZUMA and the ruling African National Congress, which has dominated the political landscape since 1994.

Exit polls suggest that the ANC may lose three key cities of Pretoria, Johannesburg and Port Elizabeth due to growing resentment caused by the many scandals that have trailed the ZUMA Administration.
