About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 8 737 · spoilt 247 · special votes 224 · All 8 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 8 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 8 voting districts here (8 716 of 16 866). The IEC publishes 51.9%.

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.

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 53 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 3 833 vs 7 293; ActionSA 2 045 vs 3 173; DA 1 480 vs 3 818; EFF 333 vs 692; ALJAMA 267 vs 756; VF PLUS 224 vs 499; ACDP 50 vs 100; RISE 48 vs 145; IFP 39 vs 79; MKP 39 vs 69; AIC 19 vs 54; MAYIBUYE 16 vs 32; TRUTH 14 vs 24; SACP 10 vs 21; AHC 9 vs 32; ATM 9 vs 22; PA 7 vs 14; APC 6 vs 11; MF 5 vs 9; FISA 4 vs 12; AZAPO 3 vs 5; KYP 3 vs 4; RC 3 vs 5; AACUM 2 vs 6; BPCSDT 2 vs 3; COPE 2 vs 4; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 2 vs 3; PAC 2 vs 4; ARA 1 vs 3; CCC 1 vs 2; ECOFORUM 1 vs 3; MOSHABI 1 vs 7; PRP 1 vs 5; SPPSA 1 vs 2; UIM 1 vs 3; A.T.C. 0 vs 3; AGANG SA 0 vs 3; AIPO 0 vs 2; ARRC. 0 vs 1; BOSA 0 vs 3; BPSA 0 vs 1; DOP 0 vs 1; GAZA 0 vs 11; ICM 0 vs 1; INGUBO 0 vs 1; IRC 0 vs 3; LAND 0 vs 1; NADECO 0 vs 1; NEGEPA7 0 vs 1; NFP 0 vs 3; S.A.P. 0 vs 2; UAT 0 vs 11; UCDP 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 151 times in 8 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.
