Dear Editor

The DA in the Eastern Cape is extremely proud of its performance in both the ward 2 and ward 5 by-elections in the Blue Crane Route Local Municipality.

Yesterday, 22 February 2023, voters again showed faith in the party and its candidates, Archer Heynse (ward 2) and Lorraine Smith Johnson (ward 5), as we managed to successfully retain both wards.

We are confident that Archer and Lorraine will continue the DA’s hard work in these wards and fight for services to be delivered to residents.

The results in ward 2 are as follows:

  • DA – 49.2% (992 votes)
  • ANC – 48.6% (982 votes)
  • EFF – 2% (42 votes)
  • % Poll – 53.2%

The results in ward 5 are as follows:

  • DA – 45.7% (830 votes)
  • ANC – 40.7% (739 votes)
  • EFF – 4.01% (73 votes)
  • PA – 7.9% (143 votes)
  • % Poll – 58.9%

We wish to thank our candidates and activists for their hard work and dedication during this campaign.

Lastly, we also wish to thank the many voters who have given us their support.

We are confident that we will continue to deliver the DA difference to these communities.
