About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 3 862 · spoilt 41 · special votes 140 · 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 (3 846 of 8 102). The IEC publishes 47.8%.

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.

Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 30 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 2 074 vs 4 129; DA 530 vs 1 071; EFF 400 vs 791; PA 333 vs 661; ActionSA 98 vs 232; VF PLUS 74 vs 161; ATM 48 vs 101; AIC 40 vs 58; MKP 30 vs 49; SACP 30 vs 62; PAC 25 vs 47; ACIM 24 vs 44; ACT 18 vs 38; AHC 18 vs 27; COPE 13 vs 24; ACDP 10 vs 18; APC 9 vs 11; NSDF 9 vs 19; AAC 7 vs 13; BOSA 5 vs 9; SARKO 5 vs 6; IFP 4 vs 8; UCDP 4 vs 5; MAYIBUYE 2 vs 5; SUN 2 vs 4; AACUM 1 vs 2; AASD 0 vs 12; MSPV 0 vs 3; PMC 0 vs 1; UAT 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 121 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.
