'Highly undesirable to go into election campaign with an interim leader': DA will vote, here's how

In a letter sent to structures of the party — dated May 26 — Zille says that only the elective aspect of the congress will be online, branches will be given the necessary support, the process will not be data intensive and candidates will have access to delegates digitally and telephonically.

“In its deliberations on this matter on the 16th of May 2020, FedEx decided that we would not hold a full deliberative congress at this stage. The facilitation of such a large gathering discussing topical and controversial issues, will require continuous and uninterrupted connectivity and significant amounts of data throughout lengthy proceedings. This may result in some delegates facing obstacles to full access, which would be intolerable.

Zille emphasised the need for the election of new leaders to happen this year, before next year’s local government elections, saying it would be “untenable” to have interim leadership for two years. “I think we can all agree that it is highly undesirable for any party to go into an election campaign with interim leadership, if we want to be taken seriously as an electoral contender.”

But but but.... Did she not keep saying how competent they are? How they would be able to run a govt? Can't even hold a conference or pay their staff but want to run a country. Voetsek!

Find a believble leader!
