The Democratic Alliance (DA) in the Northern Cape says one of the achievements in the provincial election is to get the ANC below 50%.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
DA Provincial Leader Harold McGluwa says the party remains confident that it will get more votes from districts in their traditional stronghold.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Counting is still underway with more than 84% of the voting districts declared<\/a>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cAs the Democratic Alliance, we are confident that we will see better stats up here. We believe that the total votes cast will be more than 300 turnaround by 300. We are confident that there is a number of VDs outstanding for the Democratic Alliance in Dawid Kruiper and the ZFM district and the Frances Baard in the stronghold of the DA.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cSo we are looking at close to 30% prediction today at 8 o\u2019clock and we still be living that things will change there. We see the ANC is below 50% in the province and that is what we want and that is what we work for in the province to get them below 50%,\u201d says Gluwa.<\/div>\n
