DA in Knysna axes councillor for voting with rival ANC By Tshego Lepule Share Cape Town - The DA in the Knysna municipality has axed one of its councillors following allegations she voted in favour with the ANC. Lorraine Opperman, 73, was expelled from the party just three days after she voted with the ANC on a motion during a council meeting last Thursday. Opperman had only been a councillor in ward 11 for 13 months after she was elected in a by-election in December, 2019. Previously she had been a Cope member who even stood as a candidate for ward five back in the 2016 municipal elections.
