We heard their approaches and they are on the path towards operating in the way they will need to, in order to survive in this new environment. The first speaker outlined how you work your electorate: the way you serve the interests of your constituents. That is the way of the future. Our second speaker indicated that it is necessary to maintain some autonomy from the leadership of your political party in order to maneuver more effectively to promote the agenda that you are working towards. In my view, these are the kinds of things that we are likely to hear more of from politicians who survive. One of the reasons for this is what happened after the Constitutional Court s decision [to move to an open list system] after Christmas last year had a bigger impact on elections and the way that electoral politics works here than anything in the previous sixty years. What it essentially did for the first time ever was to say to budding politicians, "You actually need the voters as much as you much as you need your party support. It is no longer enough to be number one on your party list to get elected." Numerous candidates who were number one were defeated by candidates who were number two.
