About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 10 334 · spoilt 54 · special votes 461 · 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 (10 453 of 17 934). The IEC publishes 58.5%.

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 35 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 8 998 vs 18 153; VF PLUS 360 vs 683; GOOD 321 vs 643; ANC 165 vs 325; EFF 129 vs 198; ActionSA 86 vs 200; CAPEXIT 48 vs 84; ACDP 43 vs 83; BOSA 35 vs 90; ALJAMA 19 vs 39; PA 11 vs 44; SACP 11 vs 20; ATM 9 vs 17; OLA 5 vs 9; OHM 4 vs 12; CCC 3 vs 7; COPE 3 vs 4; IFP 3 vs 6; MAYIBUYE 2 vs 4; TRUTH 2 vs 3; AIC 1 vs 3; CMC 1 vs 3; United Democratic Front Party 1 vs 7; AAC 0 vs 1; ARA 0 vs 1; D.P.A 0 vs 4; EKHETHU 0 vs 1; H.O.I. 0 vs 1; HLD 0 vs 1; K.A.P 0 vs 2; MKP 0 vs 9; PMC 0 vs 1; UDM 0 vs 8; UIM 0 vs 1; USA 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 103 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.
