With 6 months to go before what is likely to be Ibutho's last general election, Federationist Party Chairwoman Hermelinda Shelby was asked by reporters how she thought her party was faring. 'We feel good about where we are, we've run a solid campaign, and we think the people will reward our hard work in October.'
