About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 4 558 · spoilt 25 · special votes 638 · All 8 voting districts in (the IEC's voting-district results so far, out of its list of voting districts for this election)
PR ballot figures for this ward are the sum of the IEC's results for its 8 voting districts; the IEC publishes the ward ballot per ward and the PR ballot per voting district.
Turnout is calculated as PR ballots cast ÷ registered voters, from the IEC's results for the 8 voting districts here (4 564 of 8 786). The IEC publishes 52.0%.
The winner's share of registered voters is calculated: the winner's votes on the IEC's ward ballot ÷ the registered voters of the ward's voting districts.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 24 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 2 047 vs 4 081; UDM 1 711 vs 3 474; EFF 225 vs 445; ActionSA 147 vs 284; DA 118 vs 232; ATM 68 vs 130; MKP 57 vs 106; PAC 32 vs 65; SACP 32 vs 64; AIC 20 vs 55; VF PLUS 18 vs 30; ACDP 14 vs 20; AHC 11 vs 20; AUC 7 vs 20; APC 3 vs 5; PA 3 vs 5; COPE 2 vs 4; MAYIBUYE 2 vs 4; SM 2 vs 5; OLA 1 vs 2; ACT 0 vs 1; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 4; IFP 0 vs 3; TBM 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 116 times in 8 voting districts. In local elections the IEC also publishes each party's total across the ward, PR and DC 40% ballots. For these parties (by IEC party number) that total differs from the party's votes on the ballots themselves. We show each ballot's own votes. Each voting district's own page lists the IEC's figures.
Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
