About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 3 663 · spoilt 65 · special votes 729 · All 5 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 5 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 5 voting districts here (3 723 of 8 183). The IEC publishes 42.1%.

Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 31 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 2 191 vs 4 364; EFF 306 vs 626; DA 228 vs 451; Mayibuye Civic Movement 153 vs 341; UDM 148 vs 304; MAYIBUYE 101 vs 182; SACP 86 vs 193; AIC 85 vs 116; ActionSA 78 vs 175; ATM 66 vs 147; MKP 30 vs 73; AIM 28 vs 58; VF PLUS 25 vs 53; AZAPO 18 vs 31; PAC 17 vs 35; COPE 6 vs 13; APC 4 vs 5; DOP 4 vs 10; ACDP 3 vs 7; DM 2 vs 4; ECOFORUM 2 vs 4; LABOUR 2 vs 4; NA 2 vs 4; P.P 2 vs 5; PA 2 vs 5; ALJAMA 1 vs 2; CKP 1 vs 2; SDP 1 vs 3; ACT 0 vs 2; APPEIR 0 vs 2; OHM 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: the IEC's published turnout for this ward is 42.12%; its own counts give 45.50% (PR ballots cast ÷ registered voters in its voting districts); we show the calculated figure.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 100 times in 5 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.
