About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 2 640 · spoilt 88 · special votes 183 · 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 (2 604 of 5 264). The IEC publishes 50.4%.

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.

The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2021 election for the same ward (the ward that covered the same area then), both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.

Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 37 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 972 vs 2 989; DA 389 vs 1 246; ActionSA 273 vs 861; SACP 192 vs 517; EFF 135 vs 508; MKP 127 vs 456; SUN 37 vs 77; VF PLUS 32 vs 98; Mo-Africa Party 30 vs 84; SDP 30 vs 91; APC 22 vs 63; AIPO 18 vs 56; SPP 17 vs 51; INGUBO 12 vs 45; BPSA 8 vs 26; PAC 7 vs 27; MAYIBUYE 3 vs 13; ACDP 0 vs 13; ACP 0 vs 2; ADP 0 vs 10; AHC 0 vs 13; AMP 0 vs 4; ARRC. 0 vs 5; ASCO 0 vs 8; ATM 0 vs 36; BCO 0 vs 3; DOP 0 vs 4; ERM 0 vs 48; HOPE 0 vs 1; I.Q.Z 0 vs 1; IFP 0 vs 7; LABOUR 0 vs 4; MICO 0 vs 1; OLH 0 vs 1; PA 0 vs 4; TRUTH 0 vs 1; UAT 0 vs 5. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 132 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.

The DC 40% ? ballot is published per municipality: Thembisile Hani's DC 40% result.

Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
