About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 5 970 · spoilt 105 · special votes 1 679 · All 6 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 6 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 6 voting districts here (5 880 of 10 279). The IEC publishes 58.4%.
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 2 740 vs 5 546; UDM 2 387 vs 4 796; DA 254 vs 490; EFF 191 vs 346; AIC 42 vs 70; SACP 36 vs 68; ATM 34 vs 60; PAC 29 vs 37; ActionSA 24 vs 44; MKP 20 vs 30; PA 20 vs 27; COPE 18 vs 20; VF PLUS 15 vs 20; RISE 13 vs 25; ACDP 12 vs 17; AUC 10 vs 13; AHC 4 vs 14; APC 4 vs 7; OLA 4 vs 5; SM 4 vs 5; ACT 0 vs 1; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 1; IFP 0 vs 5; TBM 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 97 times in 6 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.
