About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 12 142 · spoilt 34 · special votes 855 · All 4 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 4 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 4 voting districts here (12 142 of 16 937). The IEC publishes 71.8%.
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.
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 42 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 10 045 vs 20 200; VF PLUS 876 vs 1 637; ALJAMA 199 vs 401; EFF 189 vs 297; GOOD 172 vs 382; ANC 156 vs 345; ACDP 113 vs 226; ActionSA 107 vs 227; BOSA 50 vs 80; PA 45 vs 84; CAPEXIT 33 vs 60; CCC 29 vs 64; CMC 17 vs 36; ATM 13 vs 27; UDM 9 vs 15; SACP 6 vs 12; SDP 6 vs 8; AIC 5 vs 7; D.P.A 5 vs 6; PAC 5 vs 10; SUN 5 vs 8; MKP 4 vs 8; PMC 4 vs 9; OHM 3 vs 7; COPE 2 vs 7; MF 2 vs 4; UIM 2 vs 5; ARA 1 vs 3; MAYIBUYE 1 vs 3; OLA 1 vs 4; AZANIA 0 vs 2; CKP 0 vs 6; FREE DEMS 0 vs 1; HLD 0 vs 5; IFP 0 vs 2; K.A.P 0 vs 1; LABOUR 0 vs 2; United Democratic Front Party 0 vs 4; O.D 0 vs 1; SNP 0 vs 1; TRUTH 0 vs 5; USA 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 91 times in 4 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.
