About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 5 006 · spoilt 100 · special votes 613 · All 18 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 18 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 18 voting districts here (5 005 of 9 377). The IEC publishes 53.7%.
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 27 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 2 909 vs 5 841; UDM 683 vs 1 442; ATM 551 vs 1 061; SACP 194 vs 344; DA 155 vs 312; EFF 135 vs 243; MKP 76 vs 142; ActionSA 50 vs 95; AHC 38 vs 62; PAC 27 vs 50; AIC 24 vs 55; AUC 15 vs 29; VF PLUS 10 vs 18; RISE 8 vs 10; MAYIBUYE 6 vs 13; APC 5 vs 11; COPE 5 vs 23; ACDP 3 vs 5; ALJAMA 3 vs 5; PA 2 vs 3; SDP 1 vs 4; ACT 0 vs 2; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 2; IFP 0 vs 3; OLA 0 vs 3; SM 0 vs 13; TBM 0 vs 5. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 213 times in 18 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.
