About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 9 402 · spoilt 542 · special votes 463 · All 9 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 9 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 9 voting districts here (9 462 of 17 550). The IEC publishes 54.6%.
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 42 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 6 443 vs 13 261; ActionSA 402 vs 743; PA 365 vs 699; VF PLUS 312 vs 554; CCC 217 vs 428; ANC 195 vs 331; GOOD 175 vs 396; ARA 129 vs 238; EFF 107 vs 207; ALJAMA 102 vs 203; MKP 76 vs 115; CAPEXIT 65 vs 95; ACDP 54 vs 100; BOSA 39 vs 78; ATM 29 vs 49; CMC 28 vs 59; COPE 19 vs 32; MF 14 vs 15; OHM 13 vs 26; OLA 11 vs 14; D.P.A 10 vs 16; K.A.P 8 vs 12; SACP 8 vs 41; UDM 8 vs 29; PAC 6 vs 13; A.C.C. 5 vs 13; IFP 4 vs 7; LABOUR 4 vs 6; UIM 4 vs 5; AIC 2 vs 10; MAYIBUYE 1 vs 3; SAKKMVP 1 vs 2; AAAC 0 vs 1; AAC 0 vs 22; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 1; AVR 0 vs 1; CKP 0 vs 3; EKHETHU 0 vs 1; HLD 0 vs 6; NFP 0 vs 1; United Democratic Front Party 0 vs 3; SDP 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 174 times in 9 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.
