About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 5 521 · spoilt 63 · special votes 202 · 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 (5 546 of 12 240). The IEC publishes 45.4%.

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 50 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 2 167 vs 4 216; ActionSA 1 620 vs 3 339; EFF 528 vs 1 022; ANC 515 vs 1 015; VF PLUS 270 vs 604; MKP 128 vs 241; RISE 61 vs 122; BOSA 28 vs 41; ACDP 22 vs 41; MAYIBUYE 20 vs 39; SACP 17 vs 33; PA 10 vs 19; AIC 9 vs 18; ACP 7 vs 10; PAC 7 vs 16; SPPSA 6 vs 10; SDP 4 vs 7; ECOFORUM 3 vs 5; APC 2 vs 3; EKHETHU 2 vs 4; FPSA 2 vs 4; PTA012 2 vs 3; TRUTH 2 vs 4; AZAPO 1 vs 2; BPCSDT 1 vs 2; COPE 1 vs 2; MOSHABI 1 vs 2; OHM 1 vs 4; AACUM 0 vs 2; AGANG SA 0 vs 2; AHC 0 vs 2; AIPO 0 vs 1; ALJAMA 0 vs 1; ARD 0 vs 1; ARRC. 0 vs 2; ATM 0 vs 50; BPSA 0 vs 2; CKP 0 vs 2; CONCERN 0 vs 2; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 0 vs 1; GAZA 0 vs 2; IFP 0 vs 10; IRC 0 vs 1; KYP 0 vs 1; LAND 0 vs 1; Bophuthatswana Civil Movement 0 vs 1; O.D 0 vs 1; S.A.P. 0 vs 2; UAT 0 vs 16; UCDP 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 92 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.
