JOHANNESBURG - Hundreds of people in Patriotic Alliance (PA) regalia have come out to attend the party’s victory rally at the Athlone Stadium on Saturday.
Party leader, Gayton Mckenzie, is expected to address supporters.
Some party supporters have told Eyewitness News why they are supporting the party.
"The coloured people are the majority in the Western Cape and I think if you look to the positions in the Western Cape, especially in the DA side, they are the minority but they still run the province," one supporter said.
"He is for his people. Why don't we give him a chance rather than the ANC and the DA?" another supporter asked.
"This man is going to make a difference I believe in him. I believe that my children will have a better future," one supported added.
"He is sending foreigners home, that's a big step in the country," this supporter added.
