Why cast a ballot?
An essential component of the democratic process is voting. One essential right that the Constitution guarantees to every citizen is the ability to express oneself politically.
Elections provide the public with an obligatory opportunity to engage in politics on a regular basis, promoting improved governance, increased transparency in public affairs, and influencing the formulation of sensible social and political policies as well as economic decisions.
A sovereign democratic state should have legitimacy only from the will of the people. Voting becomes a duty as well as a right for citizens as a result. In addition to giving you the chance to choose your representatives, casting a ballot is the only way to guarantee that the lines of accountability are kept open. We implore you to make the most informed use of your right to vote.
These are the party manifesto summaries.
