About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 10 459 · spoilt 79 · special votes 712 · All 5 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 5 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 5 voting districts here (10 461 of 18 320). The IEC publishes 57.2%.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 47 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 7 054 vs 13 955; MKP 1 223 vs 2 605; ActionSA 664 vs 1 108; VF PLUS 517 vs 1 151; ANC 376 vs 780; IFP 127 vs 306; EFF 76 vs 163; ACDP 71 vs 157; ERPM 67 vs 102; PA 42 vs 83; ATM 34 vs 88; NGG 11 vs 19; SACP 10 vs 23; ALJAMA 9 vs 17; MF 9 vs 20; 1860NICC 8 vs 18; PAC 8 vs 14; JEP 6 vs 12; AMC.ROY. 5 vs 7; IPP 5 vs 10; MAYIBUYE 5 vs 13; NFP 5 vs 7; AIC 4 vs 6; AZAPO 4 vs 6; ACC 3 vs 6; KZNI 3 vs 6; TA 3 vs 5; AEF 2 vs 3; AHC 2 vs 5; APF 2 vs 3; INDIANCP 2 vs 3; OHM 2 vs 4; PEOPLESA 2 vs 5; PRM 2 vs 3; TRUTH 2 vs 4; ADEC 1 vs 3; DLC 1 vs 7; Shall-X - A Shall-X Party 1 vs 2; SUN 1 vs 2; UCDP 1 vs 2; ABC 0 vs 3; ARRC. 0 vs 1; B.M. 0 vs 7; EKHETHU 0 vs 2; IYM 0 vs 1; PFP 0 vs 4; SDF 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 127 times in 5 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.
