About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 10 575 · spoilt 218 · special votes 253 · All 6 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 6 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 6 voting districts here (10 685 of 21 174). The IEC publishes 50.6%.
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 63 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 4 699 vs 9 487; ANC 1 678 vs 3 381; MKP 1 570 vs 3 185; IFP 624 vs 1 405; ERPM 456 vs 735; EFF 304 vs 594; ActionSA 173 vs 443; SACP 162 vs 240; ALJAMA 135 vs 262; ATM 97 vs 172; MF 84 vs 176; VF PLUS 49 vs 113; ACC 43 vs 83; 1860NICC 39 vs 80; PFP 29 vs 63; ACDP 22 vs 42; AMC.ROY. 19 vs 28; NGG 13 vs 36; TA 12 vs 19; AAC 11 vs 12; AIC 10 vs 35; ADEC 8 vs 14; DLC 8 vs 12; MAYIBUYE 8 vs 11; AUC 7 vs 15; PAC 7 vs 8; ASC 6 vs 9; IPP 6 vs 15; KZNI 6 vs 9; B.M. 5 vs 17; IYM 5 vs 6; JEP 5 vs 7; SDF 5 vs 6; AHC 4 vs 13; APF 4 vs 12; NDF 4 vs 6; MOSA 3 vs 5; OHM 3 vs 10; PRM 3 vs 4; SUN 3 vs 4; TRUTH 3 vs 5; ARU 2 vs 5; INDIANCP 2 vs 8; NPA 2 vs 4; PEOPLESA 2 vs 7; UCDP 2 vs 4; AC 1 vs 5; ARA 1 vs 2; ARM.JBS 1 vs 2; EKHETHU 1 vs 25; GJDP 1 vs 3; PFU 1 vs 4; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 2; ABC 0 vs 3; ACT 0 vs 1; ARECO 0 vs 1; ARRC. 0 vs 3; NFP 0 vs 7; O.D 0 vs 1; PA 0 vs 7; PPF 0 vs 3; SDP 0 vs 3; UWO 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 192 times in 6 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.
