“I could be walking in Central Park and come up on one of these horse and buggies. I don't think twice about it because I see it as part of the New York attraction. You know, you have the Statue of Liberty, you have Times Square, and you have these romantic horse and buggy things where people get married in the park and they ride these carriages. And tourists, they take these rides in Central Park. It's romantic, it's something beautiful to see. But I never thought for one second that these horses are abused.” – Tracy Winston, juror from Ryder’s trial New York City has a big, visible animal cruelty issue: horses forced to pull carriages, carrying heavy loads for long hours in all types of weather in the middle of chaotic traffic. Three years ago, a carriage horse named Ryder was a victim of this cruelty. He collapsed on a Manhattan street after being worked for hours in the summer heat. Two months later, he was euthanized. His story sparked global outrage. Ryder’s driver, Ian McKeever, was charged with animal cruelty The trial took place a few weeks ago, but McKeever was ultimately acquitted. This conversation is with Edita Birnkrant, the Executive Director of NYCLASS and Tracy Winston, one of the jurors from Ryder's trial. New York’s weak and outdated animal protection laws have not changed since Ryder died— and because of this, another avoidable death that occurred just a week after we recorded this interview. On August 5th, a horse named Lady died while pulling a carriage in Manhattan. This conversation is about accountability, about corruption and about what happens when justice fails the most vulnerable. It's too late for Ryder and Lady. But it is not too late to act. If you live in New York, please call your City Council members and tell them it’s time to bring Ryder’s Law, Intro 967, up for a vote and pass this vital bill to protect carriage horses from suffering and death on the city’s streets.

Right wing party Freedom Front Plus is, at the time of publishing, now the country's fourth largest party.
IEC is in a spin due to the growing confirmations of what is called double voting - the same individual voting more than once - due to either bad technology and bad thumb ink - either which way we talk about what it means for the numbers on the bog board as counting is finalised.
Listen to resident data analyst Paul Berkowitz has to say along with political journalist Qaanitah Hunter in this episode with a slightly different format.

The Numbers Don't Lie - Do we care about the youth vote? 29:10

۶ years پیش29:10

29:10

The youth of South Africa, aged 15-34, didn't exactly queue around the block to vote in the 2019 national elections. The Parliamentary Monitoring Group said the 18-19 year olds on the 2019 voters roll was some 47% of what it was in 2014. But despite the low turnout and low number of new registrations, we still have some hope that the young people of this country have a contribution to make. We just doubt it's going to happen in the current system. We get Pearl Pillay, managing director of Youth Lab, a youth policy think tank, to set host Scott Peter Smith and resident data analyst Paul Berkowitz straight.…

The Numbers Don't Lie - Electoral predictions almost perfect 28:16

28:16

On the show where we don't make predictions, our resident analyst Paul Berkowitz talks to Professor Ivor Sarakinsky, an associate professor at the Wits School of Governance, where against all odds, came pretty close to electoral prediction perfection. The trick? Sarakinsky merely says, "We suck our thumbs harder than the pollsters do," and ignore the polls outright. Have a listen. A little technical, but informative.…

The Numbers Don't Lie - All hail Kingmaker Malema! 26:13

26:13

While we can expect EFF chief Julius Malema won't be taking the president position, his party is still growing nicely - are we looking at a kingmaker scenario? A bigger percentage of the vote also means that the EFF has greater bargaining power, especially in the event of coalition negotiations at national and provincial level. In this episode we are taking a closer look at everyone's favourite politician and are joined by resident data analyst Paul Berkowitz, director of Edgis and Sunday Times journalist Zingisa Mvumvu who has been on top of the moving and shaking going on in the party.…

The Numbers Don't Lie - Are parties missing the women's vote? 31:39

۶ years پیش31:39

31:39

In this episode we are taking a closer look at gender and the so-called gender divide in the South African electorate. As registered voters, women outnumber men by over two million and have a much higher voter turnout, but this doesn't translate into direct campaigning by parties to appeal to their vote. Also, while parliament often congratulates itself on its representation of women and our constitutionally enshrined right to equality, this hasn’t always translated into improved conditions for women. Furthermore, poll findings suggest women are less likely to be partisan. In other words, they are less likely to have a strong, enduring party loyalty, suggesting that a party that can solve immediate problems and speak directly to women, could clinch support. We have data analyst Paul Berkowitz, director of Edgis and associate editor for analysis in the Tiso Blackstar Group Ranjeni Munusamy to ask whether parties are missing a trick.…

The Numbers Don’t Lie - Will Mmusi Maimane keep his job? 29:47

29:47

We are joined in the studio today by data analyst Paul Berkowitz, director at EDGIS, deputy editor of Financial Mail Sikonathi Mantshantsha and the Business Day political editor Genevieve Quintal. We throw some strong opinions into the ring in this episode. While Berkowitz defends the growth of the Democratic Alliance and backs it up with electoral data, Mantshantsha believes leader of the DA Mmusi Maimane will be looking for a new job following voting day on May 8. One thing we do all agree on is that when the country almost collectively calls the former president Jacob Zuma’s term to be ‘9 wasted years’ an opposition party should be flying, literally riding a wave of discontent to increase their seats in all areas of government – did the DA miss a trick? Listen and find out.…

19:38

In this episode we sit with data analyst Paul Berkowitz and senior reporter at the Sowetan Penwell Dlamini who has been working closing on the unfolding story in Alexandra. Alex is in a special position as due to the complexity of issues in the area, more than one sphere of government must be involved in those solutions and those spheres are run by different parties. So who should Alex residents vote for to solve their problems? It's unclear, but we unpack the issues, we take a historical look at the voting trends and offer some perspectives moving forward. Hosted by Scott Peter Smith, The Numbers Don't Lie is a limited series produced under Final Take, a MultimediaLIVE initiative.…
