About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 2 111 · spoilt 57 · special votes 61 · All 9 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 9 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 9 voting districts here (2 095 of 5 019). The IEC publishes 42.1%.

The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2021 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 22 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 140 vs 3 560; LABOUR 384 vs 787; UDM 182 vs 581; ATM 123 vs 406; EFF 85 vs 303; DA 37 vs 161; MAYIBUYE 14 vs 50; SACP 14 vs 59; MKP 12 vs 49; PA 9 vs 20; PAC 1 vs 4; ACDP 0 vs 11; ALJAMA 0 vs 3; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 3; ASEP 0 vs 4; AUC 0 vs 4; CI 0 vs 3; COPE 0 vs 6; IFP 0 vs 8; IRP 0 vs 4; QINA 0 vs 2; THE VOICE 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 116 times in 9 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.

The DC 40% ? ballot is published per municipality: Port St Johns's DC 40% result.

Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
