According to political analyst Sanusha Naidu, the Patriotic Alliance (PA) is currently placing among the top three parties in the Western Cape. As of now, 58% of the votes have been counted in the province. The PA is the third largest party in Cape Town and the second largest in the province.

Naidu notes that the PA has always been a significant player in the region. "A trend we're beginning to see just based on what we see on the board and what we're seeing on the IEC website on the results website is that the PA is generally in the second or third position here. And that's a very important thing to make, because we've always been watching what the PA will be doing, the Patriotic Alliance," she explains.

The analyst emphasizes that even though the PA may not be winning individual wards, they are still securing council seats in certain areas.
