About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 5 997 · spoilt 52 · special votes 1 004 · All 4 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 4 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 4 voting districts here (6 022 of 10 247). The IEC publishes 59.1%.

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 25 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 3 049 vs 5 953; ANC 1 164 vs 2 329; UDM 929 vs 1 917; VF PLUS 216 vs 476; SACP 121 vs 235; EFF 106 vs 245; ATM 104 vs 202; ACDP 65 vs 135; ActionSA 56 vs 108; MKP 31 vs 68; RISE 26 vs 59; PA 21 vs 46; AIC 14 vs 32; PAC 11 vs 19; PCM 7 vs 13; ALJAMA 5 vs 10; COPE 5 vs 12; SDP 4 vs 5; APC 3 vs 8; AHC 2 vs 4; ARECO 2 vs 4; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 3; IFP 0 vs 3; MAYIBUYE 0 vs 1; SM 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 69 times in 4 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.
