About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 12 648 · spoilt 133 · special votes 1 079 · All 14 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 14 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 14 voting districts here (12 570 of 19 964). The IEC publishes 63.3%.
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 56 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 6 889 vs 13 446; MKP 4 930 vs 9 972; DA 188 vs 392; IFP 115 vs 255; EFF 73 vs 143; SACP 59 vs 105; AIC 42 vs 101; ATM 28 vs 56; VF PLUS 27 vs 45; PRM 25 vs 36; ActionSA 22 vs 81; AUC 15 vs 23; AAC 11 vs 18; ARECO 10 vs 12; AMC.ROY. 6 vs 26; IPP 6 vs 8; MF 5 vs 6; ALJAMA 4 vs 6; ARM.JBS 4 vs 5; ARU 4 vs 9; AZAPO 4 vs 6; SUN 4 vs 6; AC 3 vs 16; AHC 3 vs 20; KZNI 3 vs 4; MAYIBUYE 3 vs 10; TA 3 vs 6; ACC 2 vs 8; AFNA 2 vs 3; ARA 2 vs 3; NFP 2 vs 4; OHM 2 vs 13; PA 2 vs 6; AEF 1 vs 6; APF 1 vs 2; B.M. 1 vs 3; EKHETHU 1 vs 3; ERPM 1 vs 2; JEP 1 vs 6; NGG 1 vs 2; PAC 1 vs 2; TRUTH 1 vs 7; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 5; ABC 0 vs 4; ACDP 0 vs 4; ARRC. 0 vs 1; ASC 0 vs 3; MA AFRIKA 0 vs 9; MAWUSA 0 vs 1; NDF 0 vs 1; O.D 0 vs 1; PEOPLESA 0 vs 1; PPF 0 vs 1; SAPM 0 vs 5; SDF 0 vs 1; UWO 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 205 times in 14 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.
