DA faces challenges attracting black voters amidst leadership changes.
The South African opposition party is getting a new leader, Maimane, to attract more black voters. The party may struggle to compete with a left-wing group for young black voters. Some key policy figures leaving may make it hard for the party to turn its values into specific plans. Local governments controlled by the party will make their own policies to appeal to their areas. The party's media team may have trouble reaching rural supporters of the ruling party.
