About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 6 030 · spoilt 107 · special votes 373 · 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 (6 089 of 12 912). The IEC publishes 47.2%.

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 59 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 832 vs 3 826; ActionSA 1 764 vs 3 780; EFF 801 vs 1 548; DA 672 vs 1 209; AIC 182 vs 234; MKP 139 vs 259; VF PLUS 86 vs 172; SACP 85 vs 154; ALJAMA 48 vs 81; SPPSA 42 vs 72; ACDP 35 vs 61; ATM 22 vs 54; AHC 19 vs 39; AZAPO 18 vs 33; PAC 17 vs 35; RISE 17 vs 32; MAYIBUYE 16 vs 25; IRC 14 vs 22; RC 14 vs 27; APC 13 vs 20; BOSA 9 vs 14; PA 9 vs 17; EKHETHU 7 vs 10; COPE 5 vs 9; TRUTH 4 vs 6; UPPA 4 vs 8; ECOFORUM 3 vs 5; O.D 3 vs 5; AACUM 2 vs 5; ACP 2 vs 3; ARA 2 vs 3; BPSA 2 vs 4; MOSHABI 2 vs 5; BPCSDT 1 vs 3; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 1 vs 2; GAZA 1 vs 2; INGUBO 1 vs 5; KYP 1 vs 2; OHM 1 vs 2; SAMMO 1 vs 2; SDP 1 vs 2; A.T.C. 0 vs 1; AGANG SA 0 vs 1; AIPO 0 vs 2; ARD 0 vs 1; ARRC. 0 vs 12; CCC 0 vs 5; CONCERN 0 vs 4; DOP 0 vs 3; ERM 0 vs 1; FISA 0 vs 3; IFP 0 vs 10; IN 0 vs 1; NFP 0 vs 2; PTA012 0 vs 1; S.A.P. 0 vs 2; UAT 0 vs 23; UCDP 0 vs 1; URF 0 vs 13. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 149 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.
