About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 3 978 · spoilt 44 · special votes 652 · 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 (3 984 of 8 355). The IEC publishes 47.7%.
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 2016 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 37 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 927 vs 4 186; EFF 300 vs 722; DA 167 vs 372; MKP 131 vs 252; SACP 131 vs 243; UDM 123 vs 264; ActionSA 77 vs 160; MAYIBUYE 67 vs 166; Mayibuye Civic Movement 57 vs 212; PAC 54 vs 118; ATM 38 vs 91; AZAPO 26 vs 61; P.P 21 vs 38; AIC 18 vs 88; VF PLUS 16 vs 36; E.T.M 12 vs 14; APC 11 vs 19; SWO 10 vs 17; AIM 8 vs 20; ACDP 6 vs 14; DOP 4 vs 8; GOOD 4 vs 7; PA 4 vs 10; PCAM 4 vs 9; DM 3 vs 7; FISA 3 vs 4; ALJAMA 2 vs 10; ECOFORUM 2 vs 4; LABOUR 2 vs 3; CKP 1 vs 4; NA 1 vs 2; OHM 1 vs 2; ACP 0 vs 3; ACT 0 vs 4; APPEIR 0 vs 4; COPE 0 vs 3; UPPA 0 vs 5. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 117 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.
