Which article are you evaluating?
2024 South African general election

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because I'm fascinated by electoral politics, and I think the environment and environmental justice play an increasingly important role in the political arena. My initial reaction is that the role of environmental policy in the election is definitely undercovered.

Evaluate the article
I don't think there's too much to say about the lead section. It gives a nice summary of the history of democratic election in South Africa. The content is definitely strong. However, my main critique and area I hope to improve would be focus on environmental issues. I found the tone to be very neutral, which is important considering the fact it's covering elections. The citations were strong and relied on a diverse array of datasets.There could be more images and media, but overall it's not a huge issue. Overall the article is a good intro survey, but I think there's much room to improve.
