About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 7 939 · spoilt 254 · special votes 308 · 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 (7 731 of 16 419). The IEC publishes 48.3%.
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 52 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): MKP 4 371 vs 8 780; ANC 1 486 vs 2 904; IFP 841 vs 1 608; EFF 201 vs 369; ActionSA 160 vs 369; DA 144 vs 321; ATM 91 vs 191; PRM 69 vs 78; AIC 50 vs 79; IPP 18 vs 33; MAYIBUYE 11 vs 22; VF PLUS 11 vs 18; MOSA 10 vs 11; ACC 9 vs 13; AHC 9 vs 17; B.M. 9 vs 11; JEP 9 vs 14; NGG 8 vs 11; ARECO 7 vs 9; IYM 7 vs 8; NFP 7 vs 10; SACP 6 vs 10; AZAPO 5 vs 8; AC 4 vs 9; KZNI 4 vs 7; OHM 4 vs 16; PAC 4 vs 8; AUC 3 vs 10; ERPM 3 vs 10; PEOPLESA 3 vs 5; SUN 3 vs 4; TA 3 vs 4; TRUTH 3 vs 7; AEF 2 vs 3; INDIANCP 2 vs 3; MF 2 vs 4; APF 1 vs 3; ARA 1 vs 2; ARM.JBS 1 vs 4; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 3; ABC 0 vs 8; ACT 0 vs 1; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 9; ARU 0 vs 3; MA AFRIKA 0 vs 3; MAWUSA 0 vs 3; NPA 0 vs 1; PFP 0 vs 3; PPF 0 vs 3; SDF 0 vs 1; SDP 0 vs 3; UWO 0 vs 4. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 195 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.
