Joburg Election Ready is an independent, non-partisan civic tool built to raise voter readiness in Johannesburg ahead of the 4 November 2026 municipal election.
Turnout in Joburg in 2021 was 42% — a record low. Research shows the gap isn't apathy, it's readiness: people who move, people whose IDs expired, people who don't know they get two ballots. A 2-minute check that turns confusion into action is worth building.
We display no party names, colours, or endorsements. We do not recommend candidates. Our copy uses empowerment framing only — never guilt or fear. We have applied for IEC voter-education accreditation under s43 of the Municipal Electoral Act.
We never ask for your ID number. Every personal lookup — registration status, address update, station finder — happens on official IEC properties, never ours. Your quiz answers, voting plan, and pledge stay on your device only. See Privacy for details.
