Tomorrow we can make history together!

A message to all South Africans:

Tomorrow we will vote in South Africa's 5th democratic election. When you enter the voting booth tomorrow, you will choose the political party that you believe can bring positive change for our country. The choice you make will have a big impact on your life and on South Africa over the next five years.

It will determine whether we can stop corruption, get the economy growing, create millions of new jobs, and begin to build a better future for South Africa step by step.

This morning, Mmusi Maimane and I met hundreds of voters on the train and at various transport interchanges in Joburg. Many of them told us that they would be voting for the DA for the first time. People across South Africa are choosing unity, vision, and a track record of job creation and clean government. They are choosing the DA. We are growing every day, getting stronger and stronger.

Tomorrow, we can make history. But only if everybody who wants change comes out to vote for the DA tomorrow. Every single vote will count. Every single DA supporter, or first-time DA voter, must please go and vote tomorrow. This is your moment. We can't do it without you.

Tomorrow, we can make history! Tomorrow we can choose a government that will bring change that cuts corruption, gets the economy growing and creates real jobs. Vote DA!

Statement issued by DA leader, Helen Zille, May 6 2014
