S. African ruling party wins big

April 17, 2004



JOHANNESBURG, South Africa -- The governing African National Congress on Friday celebrated its most decisive election victory in a decade of multiracial democracy, while the party that gave South Africa apartheid headed toward political obscurity.

With 95 percent of results reported, the ANC had just under 70 percent of the parliamentary vote, assuring President Thabo Mbeki a second term.

The New National Party, which presided over half a century of white mi
ority rule, was dealt a heavy blow in South Africa's third all-race election. With less than 2 percent, it appeared destined to be little more than a regional party.

South Africa's last white

pr
sident, F.W. de Klerk, expressed disappointment Thursday in his fo
rmer party's showing, saying the country remained mired in the past.
