Yes, very close election. I'm not very keen on minor parties like the Greens or anyone else having the balance of power. It gives them an electoral clout that they don't deserve from the ballot-box perspective. Footy is more interesting, especially the AB's verses Boks on home turf. Should be a tough tussle. I'm sort of hoping the Boks win, while at the same time, deploring their sometimes dirty play.
