 Wednesday 18th May is the day set aside for municipal elections in South Africa. Everyone over 18 who has registered to vote will have the opportunity to cast their vote for who they want to lead their municipality for the next 4 years. This is not a general election where we vote for who we want to lead the country, but a municipal election is specifically to choose who you want to run your municipality for the next 4 years.
