About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 10 381 · spoilt 105 · special votes 507 · 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 (10 331 of 18 628). The IEC publishes 56.1%.

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.

Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 52 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 5 394 vs 10 821; CCC 1 646 vs 3 096; ALJAMA 519 vs 1 062; GOOD 469 vs 846; PA 407 vs 849; ActionSA 393 vs 826; ACDP 322 vs 599; ANC 212 vs 423; CMC 182 vs 377; EFF 163 vs 301; VF PLUS 158 vs 344; ARA 116 vs 222; OLA 58 vs 103; USA 30 vs 43; A.C.C. 26 vs 43; BOSA 19 vs 42; UIM 19 vs 27; MKP 17 vs 20; CAPEXIT 16 vs 20; PMC 16 vs 38; AZANIA 15 vs 26; D.P.A 12 vs 31; COPE 7 vs 30; SACP 7 vs 15; SUN 7 vs 12; AAC 6 vs 16; MAYIBUYE 6 vs 9; TRUTH 6 vs 10; IFP 5 vs 9; AIC 4 vs 10; LABOUR 4 vs 6; SNP 3 vs 4; K.A.P 2 vs 6; OHM 2 vs 3; ABGF 1 vs 70; ANOSA 1 vs 2; MF 1 vs 2; SDP 1 vs 2; AAAC 0 vs 4; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 1; ATM 0 vs 22; CKP 0 vs 12; EKHETHU 0 vs 1; FREE DEMS 0 vs 4; H.O.I. 0 vs 3; HLD 0 vs 45; LAND 0 vs 1; NFP 0 vs 2; United Democratic Front Party 0 vs 7; O.D 0 vs 2; PAC 0 vs 5; UDM 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 191 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.
