Abstract: | South Africa held its fourth national election on 22 April 2009, a date preceded by a series of unprecedented events. For the first time since 1994, the electoral outcome was not clear cut. This issue of the Journal of African Elections analyses the manner in which the Electoral Commission managed the election and draws out the key implications of the results.
