About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 6 601 · spoilt 68 · special votes 959 · 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 (6 658 of 10 930). The IEC publishes 60.9%.
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 24 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): EFF 1 753 vs 3 404; DA 1 722 vs 3 401; ANC 1 705 vs 3 501; UDM 870 vs 1 846; VF PLUS 123 vs 255; ATM 96 vs 201; ActionSA 70 vs 148; SACP 60 vs 95; ACDP 32 vs 61; RISE 28 vs 58; AIC 23 vs 34; MKP 18 vs 35; PAC 12 vs 24; PA 7 vs 14; APC 5 vs 6; AHC 2 vs 6; AUC 2 vs 13; ARECO 1 vs 2; COPE 1 vs 5; SDP 1 vs 2; SM 1 vs 2; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 1; IFP 0 vs 2; MAYIBUYE 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 66 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.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
