Unregistered Tshwane Residents Urged to Register to Vote

Statement by Ald Cilliers Brink – DA Tshwane Mayoral Candidate:

The Democratic Alliance (DA) calls on all eligible voters in Tshwane to register or update their voter registration details this weekend.

Based on DA data modelling for the City of Tshwane, the DA can reveal there are currently an estimated 320,593 unregistered or incorrectly registered DA supporters in the metro.

To put this into perspective, the ANC received only 234,521 votes in the 2021 local government elections.

This means that the number of DA supporters who are not correctly registered to vote is significantly larger than the ANC’s entire voter base in Tshwane.

If every incorrectly registered or unregistered DA supporter gets themselves registered, the DA can win in Tshwane, and get our City working.

The areas with the highest estimated number of unregistered or incorrectly registered DA supporters are:

• Centurion – 41,756
• The Moot – 47,594
• Pretoria East – 59,445
• North of Pretoria – 35,104
• Pretoria CBD – 20,566

The DA assures these voters, that your vote will make a difference. Your vote can only make a difference, though, if you become correctly registered to vote.

If every unregistered or incorrectly registered DA supporter in Tshwane registers and votes, that group of residents will secure a DA majority government that delivers reliable service delivery, safer communities, clean public spaces, and an uninterrupted supply of water and electricity.

The power to take back Tshwane and get it working for all is in the hands of the residents of Tshwane. The government elected after 04 November, is in the hands of voters who are correctly registered to vote.

The first step is simple: register to vote.
