About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 8 932 · spoilt 182 · special votes 206 · 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 (8 907 of 16 381). 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.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 62 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 4 011 vs 8 478; ANC 2 231 vs 3 892; MKP 1 376 vs 2 759; IFP 227 vs 453; 1860NICC 210 vs 450; ActionSA 161 vs 325; EFF 103 vs 202; MF 60 vs 130; PFP 49 vs 75; VF PLUS 29 vs 85; ALJAMA 28 vs 51; ERPM 27 vs 62; ATM 25 vs 50; AIC 20 vs 56; ACC 12 vs 16; AC 11 vs 15; ADEC 11 vs 20; AHC 11 vs 29; DLC 10 vs 17; NFP 10 vs 20; PRM 10 vs 18; IPP 9 vs 19; KZNI 8 vs 11; ASC 7 vs 8; PEOPLESA 7 vs 10; SACP 7 vs 16; TRUTH 7 vs 10; AUC 6 vs 17; Shall-X - A Shall-X Party 6 vs 8; TA 5 vs 6; AAC 4 vs 11; PAC 4 vs 7; JEP 3 vs 4; MOSA 3 vs 4; AMC.ROY. 2 vs 6; APF 2 vs 4; ARM.JBS 2 vs 4; AZAPO 2 vs 3; B.M. 2 vs 11; INDIANCP 2 vs 9; MAYIBUYE 2 vs 3; OHM 2 vs 8; SDF 2 vs 3; SDP 2 vs 3; AEF 1 vs 2; EKHETHU 1 vs 4; GJDP 1 vs 2; SAPM 1 vs 2; ABC 0 vs 3; ACDP 0 vs 28; ARRC. 0 vs 1; ARU 0 vs 2; MA AFRIKA 0 vs 2; MAWUSA 0 vs 1; NDF 0 vs 3; NPA 0 vs 1; O.D 0 vs 3; PA 0 vs 27; PFU 0 vs 2; PPF 0 vs 7; UCDP 0 vs 2; UWO 0 vs 1.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 187 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.
