About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 7 837 · spoilt 150 · special votes 245 · 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 (7 848 of 15 432). The IEC publishes 51.2%.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 61 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 3 580 vs 7 605; MKP 997 vs 2 054; ANC 815 vs 1 631; IFP 351 vs 676; DLC 338 vs 546; PA 251 vs 400; EFF 241 vs 493; ActionSA 156 vs 312; PFP 132 vs 206; INDIANCP 122 vs 190; PEOPLESA 114 vs 150; MF 112 vs 178; 1860NICC 58 vs 100; ADEC 58 vs 104; VF PLUS 47 vs 109; ACDP 31 vs 76; ALJAMA 29 vs 61; IPP 27 vs 54; AIC 24 vs 42; ATM 23 vs 35; ERPM 19 vs 39; AMC.ROY. 17 vs 27; TA 15 vs 19; MOSA 11 vs 20; ARM.JBS 10 vs 11; AUC 10 vs 13; JEP 10 vs 12; KZNI 7 vs 12; PAC 7 vs 9; PFU 6 vs 7; PRM 6 vs 7; GJDP 5 vs 11; MAYIBUYE 5 vs 14; SACP 5 vs 12; AFNA 4 vs 5; ARA 4 vs 8; NDF 4 vs 7; SUN 4 vs 6; SAPM 3 vs 26; AAC 2 vs 4; AC 2 vs 9; AEF 2 vs 4; APF 2 vs 4; Shall-X - A Shall-X Party 2 vs 6; TRUTH 2 vs 5; B.M. 1 vs 10; NGG 1 vs 2; OHM 1 vs 3; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 1; ABC 0 vs 6; ACT 0 vs 3; AHC 0 vs 12; ARRC. 0 vs 1; EKHETHU 0 vs 3; IYM 0 vs 1; MAWUSA 0 vs 3; NFP 0 vs 7; NPA 0 vs 2; O.D 0 vs 3; PPF 0 vs 18; UWO 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 237 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.
