JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) – Voting for the new leader of South Africa’s ruling ANC ended on Monday about ten hours after delegates began casting ballots for either Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa or Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, a senior party source told Reuters.

“Voting for top 6 is done,” said the source, referring to the position of president of the African National Congress and the party’s five other senior posts.
