"This has been an exciting year in which the ID has had to overcome many challenges to become a positive voice for change in our country, "Patricia de Lille said. "I am extremely proud of the progress we have made over this past year and the overwhelming support that South Africans from all walks of life have shown towards the Independent Democrats. My decision to start the Independent Democrats a year ago has been affirmed throughout the country as shown by the phenomenal growth in our membership of over 60 000 people. Our members and supporters cut across the traditional political divides and the ID is fast becoming the inclusive home for South Africans who are determined to bridge the divides of our nation. Our style, approach and effective action, has brought new hope to our country. On Saturday we will be demonstrate the groundswell support that the ID enjoys. In typical ID fashion, you can expect a few surprises on Saturday, but the biggest surprise is reserved for Election Day when we will prove our detractors wrong." 

People will be congregating at 11am in Keizergracht Street (next to the Cape Technikon) where they will led by Patricia de Lille, Adv. Lennit Max and an entourage of ID taxis to the Good Hope Centre.  The ID will then be holding a rally in the Good Hope Centre at 11:30 am where they will be demonstrating just how they are going to be "rocking the vote" in this upcoming election.
