ActionSA thanks thousands of voters for their support and giving us a platform to push our policies

2 June 2024

ActionSA thanks the hundreds of thousands of South African voters who have lent their votes to ActionSA in the very first national elections we contested. ActionSA will now be represented in both the National Assembly and three provincial legislatures which means for the first time, ActionSA will have representation on all three levels of government.

It is through the support from thousands of South Africans that ActionSA helped to break the ANC’s majority, having received over 630,000 votes on all three ballots which have been cast. This translates into six seats in the National Assembly, three seats in the Gauteng Legislature and one seat each in the North West and Mpumalanga Legislatures which is a remarkable achievement for a new political party.

These results provide ActionSA with a firm foundation to push its policies both provincially and nationally to bring change to millions of South Africans, start the work of fixing our country, and keep corrupt and incompetent governments accountable. 

ActionSA will use these results to build upon as we prepare for the 2026 municipal government election campaign as we work to improve the lives of all South Africans and put our people first.

The work of fixing South Africa has only just begun, and we will continue to take action to bring change to our communities. Because it is only through taking action that we can Fix South Africa.
