Cape Town election posters: The rules political parties must follow

The City of Cape Town has announced that political parties will be permitted to display posters and swivel banners during the upcoming Local Government Elections on November 4. The City distributed guidelines for posters and swivel banners to all registered political parties a few weeks ago. The rules outline where and how political parties can display their materials within the municipal boundaries.

The City urges all registered political parties and independent candidates to be aware of the following rules. Violations must be removed within 48 hours of notification, otherwise the City will remove them at the party's expense. The cost for removal ranges from R124 per poster to R1,426 per swivel banner mounting device.

The City encourages the public to report any violations or complaints about political party posters and swivel banners by emailing the Deputy Municipal Electoral Officer at [email protected].
