Cape Town - The premier designate of the Western Cape, Alan Winde, says now that the elections are over, the real work begins to take the province to the next level. He briefly outlined his plans on the way forward to Weekend Argus, following the announcement of the provisional 2019 provincial election results at the Electoral Commission of SA results centre in Century City on Friday afternoon.He was basking in the glow of a provisional win for the DA.
“Democratically, 55% is a good result for a government. The campaign took me to every corner of this province. I have seen first-hand where the challenges are. The DA has a good track record and we will continue to build on that,” Winde said. Meanwhile, the ANC, despite suffering a defeat at the polls, was quick to point out the loss suffered by the DA.
Good’s Brett Herron said: “We only had four months to prepare and now we have representation in the provincial legislature and the national assembly. This is a great start for us and we can build a movement that can contest future elections much more robustly.”The party’s leader Patricia de Lille is in Pretoria for the national results announcement later today.
The glow of a reduced share of the vote?
