About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 12 040 · spoilt 21 · special votes 549 · All 5 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 5 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 5 voting districts here (12 157 of 17 315). The IEC publishes 70.2%.

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 40 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 9 747 vs 19 619; VF PLUS 1 129 vs 2 156; EFF 173 vs 345; ActionSA 167 vs 409; ACDP 153 vs 304; GOOD 145 vs 307; ANC 136 vs 292; PA 66 vs 134; CCC 52 vs 115; CAPEXIT 39 vs 85; BOSA 34 vs 75; ALJAMA 29 vs 53; ATM 26 vs 43; UDM 17 vs 33; COPE 11 vs 22; MKP 11 vs 21; PAC 11 vs 19; ARA 10 vs 17; OHM 10 vs 16; SACP 9 vs 13; CMC 7 vs 10; IFP 7 vs 12; D.P.A 6 vs 11; A.C.C. 3 vs 6; AIC 3 vs 5; OLA 3 vs 4; MAYIBUYE 2 vs 4; United Democratic Front Party 2 vs 3; PMC 2 vs 6; AAC 1 vs 2; AZANIA 1 vs 2; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 1; CKP 0 vs 2; FREE DEMS 0 vs 1; H.O.I. 0 vs 1; HLD 0 vs 2; K.A.P 0 vs 1; MF 0 vs 1; NFP 0 vs 5; SNP 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 125 times in 5 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.

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