About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 9 339 · spoilt 48 · special votes 10 · All 3 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 3 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 3 voting districts here (9 422 of 16 148). The IEC publishes 58.4%.
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.
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 45 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 5 158 vs 10 453; ActionSA 1 387 vs 2 746; VF PLUS 1 293 vs 2 402; ANC 619 vs 1 259; EFF 351 vs 700; MKP 151 vs 341; SACP 85 vs 170; RISE 50 vs 91; PA 31 vs 73; BOSA 27 vs 52; APC 23 vs 24; ACDP 22 vs 59; COPE 14 vs 27; ALJAMA 13 vs 27; IRASA 7 vs 10; MAYIBUYE 7 vs 18; OHM 6 vs 10; ICM 3 vs 5; NFP 3 vs 5; PAC 3 vs 7; TRUTH 3 vs 5; AIC 2 vs 9; ARA 2 vs 3; MF 2 vs 6; P 2 vs 12; AACUM 1 vs 2; FISA 1 vs 4; KYP 1 vs 2; UIM 1 vs 2; ACT 0 vs 2; ALC 0 vs 14; APSP 0 vs 1; ATM 0 vs 40; AZAPO 0 vs 1; CKP 0 vs 1; DOP 0 vs 3; GAZA 0 vs 1; IFP 0 vs 16; LABOUR 0 vs 1; LAND 0 vs 1; MSJ 0 vs 11; O.D 0 vs 1; PALCOF 0 vs 1; PMC 0 vs 6; UAT 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 80 times in 3 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.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
