The thesis implements a qualitative approach to the study and uses the case study method. It analyses the elements that were incorporated by LDS to maximise their reach and connect better with their citizens. The findings lever a gethe rhetoric to understand how the communications are formed by the party through the inclusion of the three main rhetoric elements; ethos, pathos, and logos. External factors such as competition between parties and past trauma within the community is also touched upon. Findings of this thesis are that the usage and max imisation of political marketing techniques and the implementation of multiple channels boosted the awareness of LDS. Marketing channels implemented include traditional marketing strategies such door to door campaigning as well as digital media such as Facebook, WhatsApp and YouTube to spread their message. Additionally, their popularity stemmed from being constantly available as well as their ability to build a genuine connection with their constituents.
