The mainly white and Afrikaans-speaking Freedom Front Plus appears to be the biggest winner of the 2019 national elections.In the last election, the party garnered 165 715 votes. So far, it’s already received 214 726 votes.
Groenewald denies his party campaigned on a ticket of Afrikaner populism, saying his party was only responding to how voters feel. “We openly came forward for the protection of minority rights, and we said we must abolish black economic empowerment and Affirmative Action. We got a lot of calls from our supporters specifically because of this stance.”
