ActionSA Leaders Opt to Build Party Ahead of 2026 Elections
ActionSA President Herman Mashaba and National Chairperson Michael Beaumont have chosen to focus on strengthening the party instead of heading to Parliament. The decision comes as they prepare for the 2026 local government elections.
- ActionSA will be represented in Parliament by six members, led by Athol Trollip.
- The party emphasizes building a strong non-racial alternative to the ANC as their primary goal.
Despite not securing positions in Parliament, ActionSA remains committed to their vision under Trollip’s leadership. The party’s recent electoral performance has prompted a strategic reevaluation, with plans to contest a wider range of municipal elections in the future.
While Mashaba and Beaumont will not be in Parliament, they express confidence in their team’s ability to represent ActionSA effectively. The party will share further insights on future strategies in an upcoming media briefing.
