About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 7 766 · spoilt 58 · special votes 866 · 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 (7 800 of 13 900). The IEC publishes 56.2%.

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 36 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 4 832 vs 9 555; ANC 1 269 vs 2 555; VF PLUS 357 vs 757; UDM 295 vs 598; EFF 149 vs 309; AIM 123 vs 242; PA 107 vs 217; GOOD 105 vs 185; DOP 82 vs 164; ACDP 79 vs 165; SACP 50 vs 100; MKP 42 vs 86; MAYIBUYE 36 vs 61; APPEIR 33 vs 66; ActionSA 25 vs 59; Mayibuye Civic Movement 23 vs 68; AZAPO 21 vs 39; ATM 13 vs 29; DM 11 vs 26; AIC 10 vs 28; SDP 9 vs 10; PAC 8 vs 20; COPE 5 vs 9; OHM 5 vs 14; APC 3 vs 5; UPPA 3 vs 7; ACT 2 vs 4; E.T.M 2 vs 3; NA 2 vs 3; P.P 2 vs 3; SWO 2 vs 3; CKP 1 vs 3; ECOFORUM 1 vs 3; ACP 0 vs 1; ALJAMA 0 vs 1; FISA 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 122 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.
