About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 10 415 · spoilt 51 · special votes 346 · 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 (10 328 of 19 265). The IEC publishes 54.1%.

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.

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 52 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 6 344 vs 12 529; RISE 1 086 vs 1 884; ActionSA 1 000 vs 2 083; EFF 731 vs 1 573; ANC 569 vs 1 193; MKP 128 vs 255; ATM 110 vs 249; VF PLUS 87 vs 197; ALJAMA 70 vs 161; BOSA 64 vs 118; SACP 44 vs 57; PA 13 vs 30; PMC 12 vs 39; TRUTH 12 vs 14; MAYIBUYE 10 vs 16; COPE 8 vs 20; AIC 7 vs 9; AUC 7 vs 11; LAND 7 vs 10; MOVE 6 vs 9; AZAPO 4 vs 7; AACUM 3 vs 7; AHC 3 vs 6; APC 3 vs 6; CCC 3 vs 4; AZANIA 2 vs 4; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 2 vs 3; OHM 2 vs 4; ARU 1 vs 3; ICM 1 vs 2; IMS 1 vs 3; LABOUR 1 vs 2; SAPCO 1 vs 3; ACDP 0 vs 10; ACT 0 vs 2; ALC 0 vs 51; ARRC. 0 vs 1; BPSA 0 vs 1; CFM 0 vs 2; FISA 0 vs 2; GAZA 0 vs 7; GFSA 0 vs 1; IFP 0 vs 33; IN 0 vs 1; LBKP 0 vs 1; MF 0 vs 2; MRP 0 vs 1; NFP 0 vs 1; PAC 0 vs 4; SDP 0 vs 2; UAT 0 vs 5; VSA 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 119 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.
