Calling all political candidates representing wards in the Springs area

This is an opportunity for ward councillors to introduce themselves to the residents.

The Springs Advertiser is giving all Springs ward councillor candidates standing in the upcoming municipal elections on November 4 the opportunity to introduce themselves to the public.

Here’s how:
Complete the questions below and include a clear head-and-shoulders photograph of yourself.

Email the information to buhle@caxton.co.za by no later than October 9.

If your information is received after the deadline, we will not be able to accommodate you.

Your name and surname as it will appear on the ballot paper:

  • Which party do you represent?
  • Which ward will you stand in?
  • What are your top three priorities for this ward (not more than 100 words)?
  • Why should residents vote for you, based on your track record and plans (not more than 100 words)?

Do not exceed the word count.

Include a contact number in your email (this number is for the publication’s record and will not be published).

The candidate profiles will be published on the Springs Advertiser’s website, and in the paper if editorial space allows.
