Will the DA's successes be reflected at the polls, you asked (yesterday).

I certainly think they will. People slowly but surely recognise the importance of having an alternative governing party.

Cyril Ramaphosa's claim that not voting ANC will see "the Boers return" echoes the swart gevaar tactics used by the apartheid government.

The DA's record is being rewarded as we speak.

Who would have ever thought that in rural areas such as in the Eastern Cape, the DA could see its support grow to the extent that it even won a ward in Ngquza Hill municipality?

The increase in support for the DA in Gauteng was during the last local government elections. Also, more and more people are relying on the DA to expose the rampant corruption that unfortunately has become a daily feature of our government.
