The DA’s Jack Bloom says the party has put enough work in & now it’s up to the public to make their mark.

JOHANNESBURG - The Democratic Alliance (DA) says its confident it will make historic gains in the major metros during this year's local government elections.

As the Jabula Recreation Centre wraps up the final day of special voting, the party's Jack Bloom has paid a visit to the polling station.

Bloom says the DA expects overwhelming success in these elections.

"I'm very bullish about the DA. I've been in politics for a long time and I think the Da is going to make historic gains in the metropolitan cities."

He says the main opposition has put enough work in and that it's now up to South Africans to make their mark.

"If you feel strongly about the condition of your city or your town, then you must go out and vote. I would encourage everybody to vote on voting day."

Meanwhile, the Independent Electoral Commission officials are preparing to conclude the final day of special voting so they can set up for the big day tomorrow.
