DEFEND AND DEEPEN OUR DEMOCRACY!

Our people are called upon to vote in the 2009 Elections to continue our journey towards a better life for all.

As the SACP, we pride ourselves on our near 88 years of unbroken struggle for national liberation, the reconstruction and development of our country, and for an end to all forms of oppression and exploitation.

The SACP has always understood that there can be no end to oppression and exploitation in our country, without the national liberation of the majority of the oppressed people.. We stand for nothing other than a better life for the workers and the poor of our country – the right to free education, free health care, clean drinking water, a job, freedom of association and full participation by all the people in the affairs of our country.

It is for these reasons that the SACP has remained a dependable ally of the African National Congress for close to 80 years now, fighting side by side with this mighty organisation for the total liberation of our country.

Since 1994, under the leadership of the ANC, our country has notched many victories which have been of immense benefit to the workers and the poor, including provision of houses, clean drinking water, social grants, progressive labour legislation, improved access to health care and education, school feeding and much more.

The ANC-led government has significantly improved the lives of millions of our people, especially the poor! We are proud that communists have in various ways also played their role in these achievements.

That is why the SACP says - Only an ANC government can improve on these achievements and take us closer to the ideal of a better life for all.

The SACP therefore calls upon all our people, especially the workers and the poor, to come out in massive numbers to vote for the ANC and ensure an overwhelming ANC victory in the elections.

Much more needs to be done! And must be done! Together!
