About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 9 759 · spoilt 234 · special votes 697 · 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 (9 995 of 19 869). The IEC publishes 50.5%.

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 67 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): MKP 4 680 vs 9 210; DA 2 033 vs 4 424; ANC 1 268 vs 2 545; IFP 367 vs 751; ERPM 142 vs 249; ActionSA 126 vs 349; 1860NICC 121 vs 196; EFF 111 vs 243; SACP 92 vs 174; VF PLUS 88 vs 154; ADEC 50 vs 94; NPA 41 vs 57; ALJAMA 38 vs 66; MF 35 vs 78; ATM 31 vs 65; PFP 28 vs 43; AIC 27 vs 53; ACDP 19 vs 43; PRM 19 vs 41; TA 16 vs 23; AMC.ROY. 15 vs 29; KZNI 15 vs 20; IPP 13 vs 22; MAYIBUYE 13 vs 25; NFP 10 vs 17; TRUTH 10 vs 19; UCDP 10 vs 13; ARECO 8 vs 12; INDIANCP 8 vs 15; JEP 8 vs 21; Shall-X - A Shall-X Party 8 vs 13; AEF 6 vs 17; AUC 6 vs 11; EKHETHU 6 vs 14; NDF 6 vs 46; NGG 5 vs 9; ASC 4 vs 7; B.M. 4 vs 15; PEOPLESA 4 vs 7; SUN 4 vs 6; AAC 3 vs 8; AHC 3 vs 16; ARA 3 vs 5; OHM 3 vs 8; AC 2 vs 6; ACC 2 vs 3; PAC 2 vs 5; DLC 1 vs 2; GJDP 1 vs 2; IYM 1 vs 3; MOSA 1 vs 3; PFU 1 vs 2; SDP 1 vs 2; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 2; ABC 0 vs 6; ACT 0 vs 1; ANOSA 0 vs 1; APF 0 vs 3; ARRC. 0 vs 7; ARU 0 vs 14; MA AFRIKA 0 vs 3; MAWUSA 0 vs 2; O.D 0 vs 2; PA 0 vs 9; PPF 0 vs 10; SDF 0 vs 3; UWO 0 vs 2.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 196 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.
