About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 9 594 · spoilt 51 · special votes 652 · 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 (9 612 of 14 166). The IEC publishes 68.0%.
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 43 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 6 855 vs 13 343; ActionSA 930 vs 2 038; VF PLUS 638 vs 1 271; ANC 389 vs 829; EFF 248 vs 535; RISE 167 vs 311; ACDP 64 vs 134; BOSA 50 vs 99; PA 49 vs 98; ATM 32 vs 84; ALJAMA 28 vs 57; PMC 17 vs 36; SACP 11 vs 16; OHM 6 vs 12; PAC 6 vs 34; UIM 6 vs 10; AZANIA 5 vs 8; AHC 4 vs 7; AIC 4 vs 6; MAYIBUYE 4 vs 9; AZAPO 3 vs 5; COPE 3 vs 6; APC 2 vs 3; MOVE 2 vs 4; AACUM 1 vs 11; AEF 1 vs 2; KYP 1 vs 2; POJ 1 vs 3; TRUTH 1 vs 2; VSA 1 vs 2; ACT 0 vs 2; ARRC. 0 vs 1; CKP 0 vs 1; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 0 vs 10; FISA 0 vs 2; IFP 0 vs 15; MAWUSA 0 vs 1; MKP 0 vs 73; NFP 0 vs 1; Umphakathi Warona 0 vs 2; PCP 0 vs 1; SAPCO 0 vs 1; UMBRELLA 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 120 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.
