GOOD makes its two-day pitch: vote for a city that works for everyone

With the Local Government Election two days away, GOOD is spending its final stretch on a single message to voters, that their ballot is the lever for a city that serves all of its residents.

GOOD has taken its closing message to voters with two days left before the Local Government Election, telling supporters on its official X account that the ballot is where their voice is heard.

In the post published on Monday, the party counted down the remaining time and urged voters to turn out. “In just two days, your voice will be heard at the ballot box,” it said. “Make your vote count this Local Government Election and choose GOOD for a city that works for everyone.”

The appeal closed on a three-beat slogan, “Your vote. Your voice. Your future.”, carried alongside the party’s orange branding and the hashtags #VoteGOOD, #LGE2026 and #AGOODCit.

The message is pitched at the municipal level rather than at national government, which is where local government elections are decided. GOOD’s stated promise in the post is a city that works for everyone, the framing it is asking voters to weigh in the final 48 hours.

The post does not name a municipality, a candidate or a specific service commitment. It is a get-out-the-vote message rather than a policy announcement, and the party’s record and manifesto commitments in the metros it is contesting are not set out in the material.

What the party has done is put its closing argument in the plainest terms available to it, that the outcome depends on whether its supporters actually vote. With two days to go, that is the message GOOD wants in front of them.
