Party candidates, are you ready for the hot seat?
To participate, send an email to arisjam@caxton.co.za by 12:00 on October 8 to request the questionnaire.
The Ridge Times and Standerton Advertiser invite all mayoral candidates and ward councillor candidates contesting this year’s municipal elections in the municipalities of Govan Mbeki and Lekwa to step forward.
Candidates can introduce themselves to voters, outline what they stand for, explain their plans, and share why voters should support them.
Interested candidates can email arisjam@caxton.co.za with the subject title ‘Elections ward candidate’ or ‘mayoral candidate’ to receive the questionnaire.
Candidates who take this opportunity will have their questions and answers published online in the weeks leading up to the local government elections.
The publication of these Q&As aims to inform readers and voters about the candidates available on election day. Candidates must respond to this invitation by October 8 at 12:00. No campaign slogans or rehearsed speeches will be accepted — just the questions and answers.
To participate, email arisjam@caxton.co.za to request the questionnaire. #Elections2026 #IMadeMyMark
