The DA is ready to get towns and cities across South Africa working for all. 

After more than 30 years of one party rule, change is coming to South Africa. The ANC has slipped below 50% and is no longer guaranteed to win.

That means this local government election matters more than any before it.

If the DA governs your town, you have seen what is possible. More jobs. Less corruption. Water in the taps, roads that work, and a municipality that spends money on the things it is meant for, not on itself. That progress is real, and it is on the line.

If the DA does not yet govern your town, you have seen what failure looks like. Dry taps, broken roads, uncollected refuse, and money that disappears into the pockets of those in power. That does not have to be permanent.

In both cases, the choice is yours:

You can choose the DA, a party that governs well, fights crime, creates jobs, ends corruption and makes sure the basics work.

You can choose the ANC, and get more of the same: unemployment, corruption, and a municipality that cannot deliver the simplest services.

Or you can choose a small party that cannot govern alone, and that will spend your next few years negotiating positions for its people instead of sorting out your problems, bringing the chaos of constantly changing mayors while your town stands still.

But none of those choices are available to you if you are not registered to vote.

So register. Check that you are registered correctly and that your details are up to date. Then vote DA to get your town working, or to keep it that way.
