About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 9 773 · spoilt 347 · special votes 109 · All 7 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 7 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 7 voting districts here (9 729 of 17 741). The IEC publishes 56.0%.

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 64 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 4 949 vs 10 504; DLC 1 061 vs 1 679; IFP 1 032 vs 1 989; MKP 786 vs 1 537; ANC 295 vs 588; INDIANCP 157 vs 285; MF 143 vs 283; ActionSA 137 vs 291; ADEC 128 vs 234; VF PLUS 114 vs 245; 1860NICC 102 vs 226; PEOPLESA 100 vs 153; PFP 64 vs 126; ACDP 46 vs 113; ERPM 43 vs 75; ALJAMA 34 vs 70; IPP 30 vs 98; PFU 26 vs 53; MOSA 21 vs 51; EFF 20 vs 49; TA 10 vs 19; ACC 9 vs 17; AMC.ROY. 9 vs 38; SACP 9 vs 12; AFNA 7 vs 8; ATM 7 vs 15; MAYIBUYE 6 vs 10; AIC 5 vs 12; OHM 5 vs 7; SUN 5 vs 6; AAC 4 vs 9; AZAPO 4 vs 5; SDF 4 vs 11; TRUTH 4 vs 6; AC 3 vs 6; ARA 3 vs 5; ARECO 3 vs 5; GJDP 3 vs 10; JEP 3 vs 7; KZNI 3 vs 10; NDF 3 vs 6; AEF 2 vs 4; APF 2 vs 5; NGG 2 vs 4; SDP 2 vs 3; UCDP 2 vs 4; B.M. 1 vs 5; IYM 1 vs 3; SAPM 1 vs 3; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 4; ABC 0 vs 5; ACT 0 vs 2; AHC 0 vs 9; ARRC. 0 vs 3; ARU 0 vs 1; ASC 0 vs 1; AUC 0 vs 2; EKHETHU 0 vs 6; MAWUSA 0 vs 2; NFP 0 vs 4; NPA 0 vs 1; O.D 0 vs 1; PA 0 vs 16; PPF 0 vs 12. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 222 times in 7 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.
