About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 5 678 · spoilt 33 · special votes 708 · All 3 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 3 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 3 voting districts here (5 802 of 12 672). The IEC publishes 45.8%.
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.
The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2011 election for the same ward (the ward that covered the same area then), both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 29 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 3 667 vs 7 341; EFF 501 vs 1 001; ANC 341 vs 701; ActionSA 245 vs 501; VF PLUS 179 vs 389; UDM 174 vs 359; ATM 118 vs 252; ACDP 95 vs 198; MKP 92 vs 187; PA 73 vs 148; MAYIBUYE 36 vs 43; P.P 30 vs 53; SACP 23 vs 49; PAC 12 vs 29; GOOD 10 vs 22; AZAPO 8 vs 10; AIM 7 vs 9; OHM 7 vs 8; DM 5 vs 13; ALJAMA 4 vs 5; AIC 3 vs 10; E.T.M 3 vs 6; COPE 2 vs 5; LABOUR 1 vs 2; ACT 0 vs 14; DOP 0 vs 22; Mayibuye Civic Movement 0 vs 28; PCAM 0 vs 1; UPPA 0 vs 6. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 69 times in 3 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.
