Party abbreviation: AASD
In the 2019 elections, the Afrikan Alliance of Social Democrats will contest for seats in the National Assembly, as well as in the Free State and Northern Cape legislatures.
It will be contesting elections for the first time since its establishment.
The party is led by former Mangaung mayor, Pappie Mokoena.
It says it believes effective citizen participatory democracy is the bedrock of determination of the people’s will and mandate.
The party was formed in response to what the party terms as a lack of political and administrative accountability by government at different levels.
The AASD manifesto was not available at the time of writing.
