About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 6 294 · spoilt 347 · special votes 781 · All 7 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 7 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 7 voting districts here (6 432 of 11 526). The IEC publishes 56.1%.
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 33 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 3 713 vs 7 357; EFF 554 vs 1 104; SACP 382 vs 751; DA 354 vs 753; UDM 295 vs 601; ActionSA 137 vs 288; MAYIBUYE 122 vs 224; PA 50 vs 79; VF PLUS 48 vs 101; AIC 45 vs 94; PAC 37 vs 74; AZAPO 33 vs 62; Mayibuye Civic Movement 31 vs 209; ALJAMA 29 vs 54; MKP 27 vs 62; COPE 16 vs 30; ACDP 15 vs 35; FISA 10 vs 12; GOOD 7 vs 13; AIM 5 vs 10; APC 5 vs 11; DOP 5 vs 9; DM 4 vs 11; OHM 4 vs 5; E.T.M 3 vs 5; P.P 3 vs 6; SWO 2 vs 4; CKP 1 vs 2; ACP 0 vs 5; ACT 0 vs 7; APPEIR 0 vs 3; ATM 0 vs 45; UPPA 0 vs 5. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 147 times in 7 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.
