#BornFree: 'It's almost like your vote gets drowned out by all the other votes'

Born-free

 -  noun a member of a generation born in a country after its transition to democracy, in particular, post-apartheid South Africa - Oxford Dictionary.

South Africa will hold its sixth national and provincial elections on May 8. As part of our #Elections2019 coverage, IOL has asked 94 Born Frees for their views on the upcoming elections. Will they be voting? Who influences who they vote for, if anybody? What issue would most affect their decision on who to vote for?

While never having endured the brutality of apartheid, the Born Frees face their own struggles, including high unemployment, access to education and issues around identity.

Watch as we speak to 22-year-old Dylan Manasse.

"When it comes to deciding who to vote for it's obviously a hard choice. It's almost like your vote gets drowned out by all the other votes where they just vote for one party and then your vote ends up just being null and void," said Dylan.
