Even with a record of poor service delivery and wide-spread corruption, the ANC still wins more than 60% of votes in the 2011 Municipal elections. Many black supporters remain loyal to the ANC because it paints itself as the party of liberation against apartheid. Helen Zille's opposition Democratic Alliance (DA) increases their share from 15% in 2006 to over 22% in 2011.
