About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 7 728 · spoilt 147 · special votes 363 · 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 (7 610 of 15 859). The IEC publishes 48.8%.

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 57 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): MKP 4 769 vs 9 355; IFP 953 vs 1 944; ANC 937 vs 1 782; ActionSA 387 vs 848; DA 180 vs 390; EFF 111 vs 190; ATM 42 vs 113; IPP 39 vs 66; PRM 22 vs 36; KZNI 11 vs 16; VF PLUS 11 vs 27; APF 10 vs 17; SACP 10 vs 19; ARECO 8 vs 12; JEP 8 vs 17; MAYIBUYE 6 vs 13; NFP 6 vs 10; NGG 6 vs 15; EKHETHU 5 vs 8; MF 5 vs 8; AAC 4 vs 5; AZAPO 4 vs 5; AC 3 vs 5; AHC 3 vs 8; PAC 3 vs 6; SDP 3 vs 4; AIC 2 vs 11; ANOSA 2 vs 8; AUC 2 vs 3; ERPM 2 vs 3; GJDP 2 vs 4; SUN 2 vs 4; 1860NICC 1 vs 2; AFNA 1 vs 3; ASC 1 vs 2; INDIANCP 1 vs 2; PEOPLESA 1 vs 5; Shall-X - A Shall-X Party 1 vs 3; TA 1 vs 3; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 7; ABC 0 vs 7; ACC 0 vs 1; ACDP 0 vs 4; ADEC 0 vs 1; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 5; ARU 0 vs 5; B.M. 0 vs 1; IYM 0 vs 2; MA AFRIKA 0 vs 2; MAWUSA 0 vs 2; OHM 0 vs 2; PA 0 vs 7; PFP 0 vs 2; PPF 0 vs 1; SAPM 0 vs 1; TRUTH 0 vs 3; UWO 0 vs 4.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 151 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.
