About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 6 566 · spoilt 163 · special votes 1 713 · All 7 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 7 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 7 voting districts here (6 628 of 12 868). The IEC publishes 51.5%.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 34 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 2 238 vs 4 494; SACP 2 015 vs 3 937; DA 890 vs 1 797; UDM 376 vs 728; PA 287 vs 576; EFF 220 vs 474; MAYIBUYE 54 vs 87; E.T.M 53 vs 112; DM 41 vs 76; ActionSA 37 vs 82; VF PLUS 34 vs 73; MKP 29 vs 63; PAC 26 vs 54; ATM 19 vs 46; ACDP 13 vs 23; Mayibuye Civic Movement 11 vs 77; ACP 8 vs 15; APC 8 vs 15; COPE 6 vs 13; DOP 6 vs 12; AZAPO 5 vs 14; FISA 5 vs 15; ALJAMA 4 vs 9; OHM 3 vs 4; AIM 2 vs 7; NA 2 vs 4; P.P 2 vs 4; ECOFORUM 1 vs 2; SDP 1 vs 3; ACT 0 vs 4; AIC 0 vs 39; APPEIR 0 vs 6; SWO 0 vs 4; UPPA 0 vs 5. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 119 times in 7 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.
