After months of hard work crisscrossing the country to spread a message of hope and assurance on the DA’s commitment to get things done in local government, today millions of South Africans will take to the polls to give the DA a mandate to deliver on that promise.

Having successfully registered candidates in every ward across all municipalities in the country, the DA is riding on a strong momentum to deliver a decisive victory that will put an end to ANC misrule.

The DA is the only party with an established track record in government to bring change to municipalities that have essentially collapsed due to ANC corruption and maladministration. South Africans are ready to deliver a decisive blow to decades of ANC impunity and vote for the DA to deliver change and better service delivery.

With voter interactions telling us millions are coming out to vote for change, the mood in the country confirms that it is now or never for our municipalities. The truth is, we cannot afford another 5 years of the ANC wrecking ball. Municipalities have literally collapsed under the ANC and today is an opportunity to put a stop to this death spiral and vote DA.

We are calling on all South Africans to make their way to polling stations in which they are registered and make their voices heard. The message to voters is simple, don’t miss your chance to make change. The DA has presence in every polling station and we will be on standby to assist.

The clarion call as the blue wave sweeps across the country is clear – give change a chance, be brave and go out and vote.
