General elections were held in South Africa on 2 June 1999. The result was a landslide victory for the governing African National Congress (ANC), which gained fourteen seats. Incumbent president Nelson Mandela declined to seek re-election as president on grounds of his age. This election was notable for the sharp decline of the New National Party, previously the National Party (NP), which without former State President F.W. de Klerk lost more than half of their former support base. The liberal Democratic Party became the largest opposition party, after being the fifth largest party in the previous elections in 1994. The number of parties represented in the National Assembly increased to thirteen, with the United Democratic Movement, jointly headed by former National Party member Roelf Meye

Juni 1999 statt und wurde vom African National Congress (ANC) gewonnen, der die Zahl seiner Sitze um 14 steigerte. Der ANC hatte die vorangegangene Wahl am 27. April 1994 ebenfalls mit absoluter Mehrheit gewonnen und danach Nelson Mandela zum Präsidenten Südafrikas gewählt. Mandela (* 1918) hatte zu keiner Zeit eine zweite Amtszeit geplant; er hielt am 29. März 1999 seine Abschiedsrede und setzte sich danach zur Ruhe. (de) Las elecciones generales de Sudáfrica de 1999 tuvieron lugar el 2 de junio del mencionado año para escoger a los 400 miembros de la Asamblea Nacional y renovar las legislaturas provinciales, que a su vez elegirían a los 90 miembros del Consejo Nacional de las Provincias, configurando así la legislatura del Parlamento de Sudáfrica para el período 2014-2019. Fueron las segundas elecciones generales desde el fin del Apartheid en 1994, así como las primeras desde la sanción de la en 1996. Tras el anuncio del presidente Nelson Mandela en julio de 1996 de que no se presentaría a la reelección, su partido, el Congreso Nacional Africano (ANC), designó al vicepresidente saliente Thabo Mbeki como su candidato presidencial. El número de registrados para votar fue muy inferior al de 1994, aunque en s (es) Les élections générales sud-africaines du 2 juin 1999 sont les deuxièmes élections non raciales au suffrage universel de l'histoire du pays. Elles sont remportées pour la deuxième fois par le congrès national africain (ANC) et pour la première fois par Thabo Mbeki en tant que chef du parti. Ces élections sont aussi marquées, non seulement par l'échec de la stratégie politique du Nouveau Parti national (ancien Parti national ) et par son effondrement électoral, mais aussi simultanément par la réussite de la stratégie politique offensive du parti démocratique mené par Tony Leon.
