The Democratic Alliance in the Free State hosted a successful provincial congress in Bloemfontein. This flagship event once again showcased the diversity, strength, and growth we have experienced over the last couple of years.
The Congress brought together delegates from across the province to elect provincial leadership and to engage on key party matters, including the future direction of the DA in the Free State. The delegates elected new competent leadership who will guide the DA Free State into this year’s Local Government Elections (LGE).
A strong and united DA is ready to campaign hard and work hard in order to be the dominant party in municipalities across the Free State. Residents of the Free State deserve to live under the benefits that come with DA-run governments.
The results were as follows:
Provincial Leader:
Provincial Chairperson:
Deputy Chairpersons:
Finance Chairperson:
David van Vuuren (Uncontested)
We wish the newly elected leadership team well in their respective roles. We have full confidence in your ability to take the province to a whole new level.
