Cape Town - ANC deputy president Cyril Ramaphosa will hit
the election campaign trail again on Monday, this time for by-elections to be
held in George, the party said.
Ramaphosa plans to start early with a walkabout and a
meeting in Uniondale, then a spot of canvassing in Ward 11, Thembalethu, said
Western Cape head of organising Richard Dyantyi.
He will round off with a mini-rally in Ngcakani Street
between 16:00 and 17:00.
A seat in Ward 11 became vacant after the death of DA
councillor Luxamile Xesi in a house fire last September.
The by-election will be held on Wednesday, February 1.
According to the Electoral Commission, the 4 227 registered
voters can vote at Christ the Redeemer Church in Thembalethu, Gateway Lodge,
the Lutheran Church in Rondevlei and at the Pine Lodge Resort.
A by-election in Ward 25 would also be held after the death
of ANC councillor Marlin Du Preez. He was found dead at home.
The 3 859 registered voters in Ward 25 can vote at the
Lyonville community hall, the Ezeljacht Primary School, Diepkloof Voorskool,
Hartbeesriver Primary School and Bassou farms.
