MUST WATCH

On May 29, South Africans will go to the polls in the seventh round of national and provincial government elections since the country's democratic transition in 1994. Voters will be able to choose among 11 independent candidates and 70 political parties following processes of verifications and objections, contesting 887 seats in the upcoming elections.
The stakes are high as 27.79 million registered voters according to the IEC will receive three ballot papers to elect candidates to represent them in the National Assembly and Provincial Legislatures.
Ballots will be distributed amongst the 23 292 voting stations.
Populism has become a hotly discussed topic in debates on the current state of politics. While some are of the view that populism offers the promise of democratic renewal, bringing new actors and policies into the political system, others view it as a threat to a functioning democracy.
Contested issues surrounding populism, how populism is changing political discourse in SA and the relationship between populism and democracy are some of the issues we will explore further with Political Analyst Sandile Swana who joins us via video link.
