Ipsos says young South African voters feel unrepresented by any political party

# A new poll by Ipsos shows that 50-percent of registered young South African voters aged 18 to 24 say there is no political party that represents their views. Only 27-percent are interested in elections and politics. The EFF and ANC are tied as the most supported parties among young voters at 17-percent each, followed by the MK Party at 15-percent and the DA at 13-percent. Ipsos’ Mari Harris says many young people remain unconvinced that using their democratic rights to vote can address the issues that matter most to them.
