About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 9 213 · spoilt 184 · special votes 1 501 · All 9 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 9 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 9 voting districts here (9 120 of 18 871). The IEC publishes 48.9%.

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.

Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 60 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): MKP 5 986 vs 11 914; ANC 1 715 vs 3 404; IFP 337 vs 654; DA 241 vs 513; ActionSA 191 vs 431; EFF 106 vs 213; AAC 64 vs 109; ATM 55 vs 95; PAC 27 vs 44; MAYIBUYE 22 vs 37; AIC 20 vs 46; ARECO 20 vs 26; KZNI 19 vs 29; PFP 19 vs 29; IPP 12 vs 22; PRM 12 vs 24; GJDP 11 vs 17; ERPM 10 vs 12; NFP 9 vs 13; SACP 9 vs 18; OHM 8 vs 12; AHC 6 vs 15; AUC 6 vs 10; JEP 6 vs 13; MF 6 vs 11; VF PLUS 6 vs 9; AC 5 vs 8; AZAPO 5 vs 6; B.M. 5 vs 7; AMC.ROY. 4 vs 9; ARM.JBS 4 vs 7; ACC 3 vs 8; ASC 3 vs 6; EKHETHU 3 vs 6; IYM 3 vs 5; MA AFRIKA 3 vs 6; ALJAMA 2 vs 5; ARA 2 vs 28; SAPM 2 vs 3; SDP 2 vs 3; TRUTH 2 vs 25; 1860NICC 1 vs 2; AEF 1 vs 3; APF 1 vs 6; Shall-X - A Shall-X Party 1 vs 3; SUN 1 vs 2; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 3; ABC 0 vs 4; ACDP 0 vs 1; ACT 0 vs 1; ADEC 0 vs 1; ARU 0 vs 1; INDIANCP 0 vs 1; NDF 0 vs 2; NGG 0 vs 3; PA 0 vs 3; PFU 0 vs 3; TA 0 vs 1; UCDP 0 vs 1; UWO 0 vs 2.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 218 times in 9 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.
