About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 6 358 · spoilt 118 · special votes 800 · 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 (6 859 of 16 562). The IEC publishes 41.9%.

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 41 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 3 051 vs 6 651; EFF 855 vs 1 800; DA 721 vs 1 597; UDM 204 vs 395; ATM 142 vs 274; ActionSA 141 vs 416; GOOD 138 vs 276; VF PLUS 130 vs 195; PAC 64 vs 158; AIC 46 vs 90; MKP 42 vs 99; SACP 24 vs 44; MAYIBUYE 19 vs 52; COPE 10 vs 28; PA 8 vs 20; A.C.C. 7 vs 13; ACDP 7 vs 16; IFP 6 vs 15; AAC 3 vs 5; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 3 vs 5; EKHETHU 2 vs 3; UIM 2 vs 76; AZANIA 1 vs 5; CCC 1 vs 12; CMC 1 vs 2; MF 1 vs 2; OHM 1 vs 3; PMC 1 vs 3; SNP 1 vs 2; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 8; ANOSA 0 vs 7; ARA 0 vs 3; AVR 0 vs 1; CAPEXIT 0 vs 1; H.O.I. 0 vs 7; K.A.P 0 vs 1; LABOUR 0 vs 3; LAND 0 vs 1; NFP 0 vs 1; United Democratic Front Party 0 vs 6; USA 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 129 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.
