# The DA has taken over leadership of the Laingsburg municipality in the Western Cape following a successful motion of no confidence against former mayor, the Patriotic Alliance’s Amanda Kleinbooi, and the Karoo Democratic Force’s Samuel Laban as deputy mayor. The party has appointed Aletta Theron as the new mayor and Lindi Potgieter as deputy mayor. The DA’s Tertuis Simmers says the PA-led coalition with the ANC and KDF left the municipality in a state of collapse:
