# List of members of the 4th Free State Provincial Legislature

This a list of members of the fourth Free State Provincial Legislature as elected in the election of 22 April 2009. In that election, the African National Congress (ANC) retained a diminished majority in the legislature, winning 22 of 30 seats. The ANC's Ace Magashule was elected as Premier of the Free State.

The Congress of the People (COPE), a newly established party, usurped the status of the Democratic Alliance (DA) as official opposition in the legislature; of COPE's four representatives, two – Casca Mokitlane and Gertrude Mothupi – had previously represented the ANC in the legislature. The DA retained three seats and the Freedom Front Plus (FF+) retained a single seat; the African Christian Democratic Party, however, lost its representation in the legislature.
