About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 8 699 · spoilt 125 · special votes 712 · All 8 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 8 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 8 voting districts here (8 730 of 14 684). The IEC publishes 59.8%.
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 46 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 4 750 vs 9 757; VF PLUS 2 046 vs 3 804; ActionSA 958 vs 2 022; EFF 278 vs 545; ANC 274 vs 540; ACDP 68 vs 116; MKP 46 vs 88; RISE 30 vs 62; BOSA 22 vs 39; MAYIBUYE 14 vs 24; PA 13 vs 28; RC 11 vs 16; SACP 11 vs 22; PAC 9 vs 14; COPE 4 vs 7; ARA 3 vs 6; TRUTH 3 vs 4; ALJAMA 2 vs 3; BPSA 2 vs 3; CCC 2 vs 3; OHM 2 vs 4; SPPSA 2 vs 4; AHC 1 vs 2; ECOFORUM 1 vs 2; INGUBO 1 vs 2; UIM 1 vs 2; UMBRELLA 1 vs 2; AACUM 0 vs 4; AGANG SA 0 vs 1; AIC 0 vs 1; APC 0 vs 3; ARRC. 0 vs 2; ATM 0 vs 18; CKP 0 vs 1; DOP 0 vs 6; ERM 0 vs 1; FISA 0 vs 4; GAZA 0 vs 3; ICM 0 vs 2; IFP 0 vs 9; IRC 0 vs 1; LAND 0 vs 1; Bophuthatswana Civil Movement 0 vs 2; UAT 0 vs 4; UCDP 0 vs 4; URF 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 127 times in 8 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.
