About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 3 180 · spoilt 142 · special votes 194 · 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 (3 144 of 6 863). The IEC publishes 46.4%.
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 31 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 579 vs 3 294; DA 358 vs 842; SACP 349 vs 536; EFF 158 vs 338; ACIM 114 vs 216; NSDF 113 vs 207; PA 57 vs 83; AIC 53 vs 70; ACDP 43 vs 61; ActionSA 39 vs 73; ATM 29 vs 58; MKP 26 vs 52; AACUM 23 vs 26; LABOUR 20 vs 35; PAC 13 vs 20; APC 10 vs 16; AHC 9 vs 17; MSPV 9 vs 23; COPE 7 vs 10; AAC 6 vs 12; UCDP 5 vs 6; SUN 4 vs 8; URF 4 vs 6; VF PLUS 4 vs 14; BOSA 3 vs 6; IFP 1 vs 2; AASD 0 vs 3; ACT 0 vs 3; PMC 0 vs 3; SARKO 0 vs 1; UAT 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 118 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.
