The Freedom Day gave you freedom.

This year's elections are being regarded as the most important elections in the country after 1994. This was proven by the number of people turnout in all voting stations around the country especially youth. Its look like young people wants to be part of changes that will take place after the new president sworn in.
It has been a long journey for political parties who started campaigning late last year. April 22 was the due-date, but the question still remains: did they do enough to convince the people especially the first time voters? Did the opposition parties gave the voters the alternatives parties to vote for?
Judging from the results that are coming out through-out the country, it look like the opposition parties failed to give voters options. Currently the African National Congress (ANC) is leading almost eight provinces excluding the Western Cape which is dominated by the Democratic Alliance (DA). Maybe the opposition parties focused too much on the ANC instead of convincing the people during campaigns. Everything they did was to criticised the ruling party and its policies that some people think are good because even those opposition political parties did not come with something new.
The problems that we have as country haven't change and you can tell that by looking at all parties manifesto's. The only thing that the opposition parties failed to do was to stress the point of fast service delivery to the people which is something that ANC failed to do in the past 15 years.
