STORY: This man was born on April 27th, 1994 - the day of South Africa's first multi-racial elections.And that gave his parents an idea."My mom and dad decided to call me Vote."Vote Ubisi says it was at times difficult growing up with his unusual name - but his father, traditional herbalist Earnesto Ubisi, says he's never regretted the choice."My son's name was Vote, and I will never want to change it."The election thirty years ago brought Nelson Mandela to power amid an atmosphere of excitement and hope.South Africans are again about to head to the polls.But this time, the mood is decidedly less optimistic.The "rainbow nation " envisaged by Mandela is afflicted by poverty, inequality, corruption and crime.Mandela's party, the African National Congress, looks likely to lose its majority for the first time since he led it to victory.Vote lives with his family in Lillydale, a poor and rural village in Mpumalanga province.It's close to luxury game reserves where tourists pay thousands of dollars per night.And yet Vote's family does not have running water and the streets of his village are unpaved."My hope for the future is to see our community being successful in terms of service delivery. Running water, and then the pavement in our society because when it rains sometimes, the vehicles, or the cars are struggling to get in because there is some mud, and it is too wet".Vote, who works as a part-time waiter at a safari lodge, says the majority of the youth don't participate in elections, disappointed at politicians who "promise x, y, and z but actually don't do anything".Jobs are scarce, and many young people get sucked into crime.Vote, however, will be living up to his name - though he declined to say which party will get his backing.
