The South African general elections are almost here!

PODCAST: Democracy on the ballot in biggest elections year ever

While the current political climate in South Africa leaves much to be desired, there is no doubt that it's more important than ever for you as a citizen to make your voice heard.

One of the most valuable ways SA citizens can help their country is by registering to vote and actually participating and casting a vote in 2024.

But the whole process can be a bit daunting, especially if you are preparing to cast your vote for the first time ever.

QUIZ: Which political party best matches you?

There are so many different political parties with different policies; there is almost an information overload and it can be scary when you fear that you might make the wrong choice.

Have no fear because Yoh Vote is here to help you!

The creators of the application have taken inspiration from others such as Tinder and Bumble, where you try to find your best romantic match, and put a slight twist on it.

When using Yoh Vote, the user will "date" political parties in order to find the best match that aligns with the user's political views.

The information about the various parties on the app was sourced from their most recent manifestos and websites and when users want to "take it further" with any of these parties, they will be directed to their sites.

Here is a look at the bios for the political party profiles on the app:
