Episode #22 Bins, Potholes and Ballots: Why Local Elections Matter
Your local election shapes more than politics, it shapes your daily life. Your water, roads, refuse collection, streetlights, electricity and local safety all connect back to decisions made by your municipality. In this episode of Jaxx of All Trades, we break down South Africa’s 2026 local elections: what you are voting for, why metro voters get two ballots while other voters get three, what PR means, and how to read a manifesto without getting played. If your tap has run dry, your bin has not been collected or a pothole has eaten your tyre money, local politics is already your business. Every JOAT is a GOAT in the making.
