Cape Town mayoral race still open as DA unveils first tranche of Western Cape candidates
CAPE Town Mayor Geordin Hill-Lewis, who has been touted as a potential candidate to replace DA leader John Steenhuisen, has hinted at running for a second term as mayor.
However he was not among newly announced DA mayoral candidates for eight municipalities in the province yesterday.
The party kicked off its election campaign with the announcement of its first tranche of mayoral candidates for the Western Cape.
The mayoral candidates are: Beaufort West: Gina Duimpies; Cape Winelands District: Antoinette Steyn; Central Karoo District: October Haarvoor; Hessequa: Gerald Boezak; Kannaland: Joslyn Johnson, Knysna: Levael Davis; Laingsburg: Aletta Theron and Overberg District: Dr Annelie Rabie.
The party is still busy with interviews for the Cape Town mayor position, though Hill-Lewis posted on social media that he remains “committed to stand for a second term as the mayor of Cape Town”.
