The race for votes in the Western Cape is heating up, with the Patriotic Alliance joining forces with five smaller parties.

From left, Leon Campher, Noël Constable, Gayton McKenzie, Goliath Lottering, Gert Laban and Colin Sylvester will all campaign for the PA in the 29 May general election.

The DA has dominated in the province for more than a decade. However, recent polls indicate that its majority might be at risk. “These leaders have realised the value of standing with the PA and not splitting their constituencies’ vote, as we all want what is best for South Africa and the Western Cape, and the PA represents the strongest opportunity, as the fastest-growing party in the country, to make the voices of South Africa’s long-disenfranchised voters count most.”

The alliance does not come as a surprise as the PA is already working with the KDF in the Central Karoo District Municipality, wherefor a year. In Prince Albert Municipality, the PA did not field a candidate for last year’s by-election and supported the KGP’s candidate.Last week, the Independent Civic Organisation of South Africa announced it would support Marius Fransman’s People’s Movement for Change in the general election.

While he wants to replace the DA in the province, he said working with the party was not off the table.
