The African Christian Democratic Party (ACDP) reported that roughly three thousand individuals had pledged their support in the George ward. When the election took place, only about ten percent of the anticipated votes from those supporters were actually cast. The party highlighted this discrepancy as a cause for concern. It suggested that the shortfall may point to shortcomings in voter education within the area. The ACDP also questioned whether campaign promises had been effectively communicated to the pledged voters. The situation has prompted the party to call for a review of how support is translated into actual votes.
