About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 7 049 · spoilt 292 · special votes 281 · 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 (6 970 of 16 403). The IEC publishes 44.0%.

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 43 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 3 346 vs 6 759; SACP 994 vs 1 487; EFF 679 vs 1 376; DA 640 vs 1 397; UDM 255 vs 535; ActionSA 182 vs 430; ATM 131 vs 317; MKP 114 vs 226; BOSA 91 vs 168; PAC 74 vs 155; AIC 56 vs 96; VF PLUS 51 vs 128; MAYIBUYE 44 vs 123; GOOD 21 vs 50; ACDP 11 vs 35; IFP 11 vs 20; PA 10 vs 19; CMC 6 vs 7; A.C.C. 5 vs 13; ALJAMA 3 vs 5; ANOSA 3 vs 4; AZANIA 3 vs 5; COPE 2 vs 11; United Democratic Front Party 2 vs 5; SDP 2 vs 3; TRUTH 2 vs 4; AAAC 1 vs 2; AAC 1 vs 5; ARA 1 vs 3; CAPEXIT 1 vs 2; CCC 1 vs 13; OLA 1 vs 3; UIM 1 vs 2; ABGF 0 vs 2; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 8; D.P.A 0 vs 2; FREE DEMS 0 vs 1; H.O.I. 0 vs 3; LABOUR 0 vs 2; O.D 0 vs 5; SAKKMVP 0 vs 1; SUN 0 vs 1; USA 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.

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