About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 11 402 · spoilt 294 · special votes 636 · All 8 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 8 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 8 voting districts here (11 264 of 21 888). The IEC publishes 52.3%.

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 52 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 6 151 vs 12 368; PA 1 754 vs 3 455; ANC 612 vs 1 281; ActionSA 585 vs 1 240; VF PLUS 455 vs 776; PMC 286 vs 521; EFF 252 vs 517; CCC 206 vs 364; GOOD 142 vs 256; ATM 120 vs 218; ACDP 105 vs 232; UDM 67 vs 131; ARA 45 vs 90; MKP 42 vs 88; PAC 40 vs 93; ALJAMA 34 vs 64; OLA 34 vs 69; BOSA 28 vs 60; CMC 18 vs 28; AIC 17 vs 25; SACP 15 vs 32; COPE 14 vs 31; D.P.A 11 vs 17; MF 11 vs 15; SAKKMVP 9 vs 16; NFP 8 vs 10; A.C.C. 7 vs 9; AAAC 5 vs 6; MAYIBUYE 5 vs 16; TRUTH 5 vs 6; AAC 4 vs 6; SUN 4 vs 6; CAPEXIT 3 vs 9; IFP 3 vs 7; UIM 3 vs 8; ANOSA 2 vs 4; ABGF 1 vs 3; AZANIA 1 vs 2; LABOUR 1 vs 2; United Democratic Front Party 1 vs 18; OHM 1 vs 3; SDP 1 vs 2; AVR 0 vs 2; CKP 0 vs 10; EKHETHU 0 vs 1; FREE DEMS 0 vs 1; H.O.I. 0 vs 3; HLD 0 vs 13; K.A.P 0 vs 6; LAND 0 vs 1; O.D 0 vs 2; SNP 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 220 times in 8 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.
