Johannesburg - Ten to 12 percent of the vote, that is what Independent Democrats leader Patricia de Lille predicted her party would get in next month's general election.
The fiery party leader, called the one-woman-show by many of her opponents, on Tuesday introduced her provincial leaders and premier's candidates to the media at the Gauteng legislature in Johannesburg.
"I can't wait for the 14th of April. There are so many people I want to prove wrong, so many scores I want to settle," De Lille said.
De Lille told journalists her party was campaigning in all nine provinces as well as for national parliament.
"We will return to both the national parliament and all nine provincial legislatures to work for positive change."
De Lille said she had criss-crossed the entire country in the last three months and had been pleased everywhere by the support she and her party had received.
