About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 7 377 · spoilt 137 · special votes 1 959 · All 6 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 6 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 6 voting districts here (7 347 of 13 313). The IEC publishes 55.5%.
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 63 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 2 432 vs 4 940; MKP 1 069 vs 1 991; ActionSA 868 vs 1 997; SACP 612 vs 1 057; DA 611 vs 1 252; EFF 528 vs 1 038; IFP 290 vs 585; MAYIBUYE 273 vs 516; VF PLUS 68 vs 130; ATM 66 vs 148; PA 35 vs 88; AHC 30 vs 37; POJ 30 vs 53; BOSA 28 vs 55; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 26 vs 38; PAC 21 vs 43; APC 20 vs 37; ACT 19 vs 24; AUC 18 vs 23; RISE 18 vs 26; ARU 13 vs 22; AZAPO 12 vs 28; ALJAMA 11 vs 13; NFP 11 vs 12; AIC 10 vs 34; COPE 10 vs 20; IRC 10 vs 20; LABOUR 7 vs 18; Umphakathi Warona 4 vs 10; SAPCO 4 vs 6; AZANIA 3 vs 4; ECOFORUM 3 vs 4; MOVE 3 vs 4; TRUTH 3 vs 8; FISA 2 vs 7; SHOSH 2 vs 3; UMBRELLA 2 vs 3; AACUM 1 vs 4; AEF 1 vs 4; AGF 1 vs 4; ANOSA 1 vs 2; ARA 1 vs 3; BPSA 1 vs 9; EKHETHU 1 vs 3; KYP 1 vs 2; MF 1 vs 2; VSA 1 vs 2; ACDP 0 vs 15; ALC 0 vs 8; ARM 0 vs 5; ARRC. 0 vs 3; ERM 0 vs 1; GAZA 0 vs 3; GFSA 0 vs 1; IN 0 vs 2; LAND 0 vs 9; LBKP 0 vs 1; MAWUSA 0 vs 2; MRP 0 vs 4; O.D 0 vs 2; PCP 0 vs 1; SDP 0 vs 2; UAT 0 vs 5. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 178 times in 6 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.
