About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 10 833 · spoilt 108 · special votes 893 · 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 (11 094 of 20 529). The IEC publishes 54.3%.

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 49 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 6 239 vs 12 657; PA 2 356 vs 4 463; ActionSA 357 vs 788; ANC 290 vs 591; CCC 285 vs 612; ALJAMA 233 vs 461; VF PLUS 191 vs 414; PMC 138 vs 234; ACDP 137 vs 283; HLD 110 vs 210; EFF 70 vs 175; GOOD 70 vs 151; CMC 41 vs 89; PAC 29 vs 46; OLA 18 vs 43; BOSA 14 vs 31; D.P.A 14 vs 25; MKP 14 vs 25; SUN 13 vs 14; ATM 12 vs 78; K.A.P 12 vs 23; UDM 12 vs 24; A.C.C. 10 vs 20; TRUTH 10 vs 12; ARA 9 vs 24; CAPEXIT 6 vs 9; COPE 6 vs 27; AZANIA 5 vs 8; SAKKMVP 5 vs 10; AAC 4 vs 24; IFP 2 vs 5; LABOUR 2 vs 5; MAYIBUYE 2 vs 5; UIM 2 vs 6; AIC 1 vs 3; United Democratic Front Party 1 vs 2; AAAC 0 vs 3; ABGF 0 vs 1; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 25; CKP 0 vs 8; FREE DEMS 0 vs 1; H.O.I. 0 vs 10; LAND 0 vs 1; MF 0 vs 1; NFP 0 vs 24; O.D 0 vs 1; SACP 0 vs 4; SDP 0 vs 2; USA 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 178 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.
