South Africa had a presidential election on 29 May 2024. No party won a majority so the country must be governed by a coalition. The next scheduled election is in 2029, but there are a couple of ways one could happen earlier.

• If no coalition forms in time, there will be another election in 2024.

• If the coalition government dissolves later, there might be an early election.

South Africa does have "municipal" elections, the next of which is in 2026. These won't count. I will only count elections where

• the presidency is at stake

• there is a public vote (so for example the parliament choosing a new president without a full election first doesn't count)

I will not trade in this market.
