About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 7 693 · spoilt 78 · special votes 682 · 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 (7 563 of 14 242). The IEC publishes 54.8%.

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.

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 50 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 2 561 vs 4 963; ActionSA 2 037 vs 4 355; MKP 912 vs 1 706; EFF 687 vs 1 233; DA 583 vs 1 229; PA 135 vs 236; VF PLUS 116 vs 198; ACDP 109 vs 245; ATM 63 vs 125; MAYIBUYE 57 vs 114; PAC 42 vs 72; IFP 40 vs 83; RISE 36 vs 68; SACP 36 vs 72; ACT 26 vs 33; SAPCO 24 vs 41; AZAPO 16 vs 33; AIC 15 vs 56; APC 10 vs 21; MOVE 10 vs 16; IRASA 9 vs 11; UMBRELLA 9 vs 12; BOSA 8 vs 15; TRUTH 7 vs 14; COPE 6 vs 12; ARA 5 vs 11; ALJAMA 4 vs 6; AHC 3 vs 18; EKHETHU 3 vs 7; MF 3 vs 7; NADECO 3 vs 4; P 3 vs 6; AGF 2 vs 4; ARRC. 2 vs 4; BPSA 2 vs 6; MRP 2 vs 3; Umphakathi Kai One Party 2 vs 4; UIM 2 vs 3; AACUM 1 vs 3; ACP 1 vs 3; AUC 1 vs 3; ICM 1 vs 2; ALC 0 vs 3; APSP 0 vs 1; LABOUR 0 vs 1; LAND 0 vs 3; MAWUSA 0 vs 2; NDD 0 vs 2; NFP 0 vs 1; UAT 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 153 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.
