About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 5 221 · spoilt 145 · special votes 320 · 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 (5 225 of 9 816). The IEC publishes 53.3%.
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 31 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 1 739 vs 3 276; ANC 1 623 vs 3 445; PA 659 vs 1 167; EFF 360 vs 807; ActionSA 201 vs 473; VF PLUS 118 vs 267; SACP 80 vs 151; MKP 53 vs 102; ATM 47 vs 93; AIC 45 vs 56; PAC 22 vs 38; UAT 19 vs 35; ACDP 16 vs 39; AHC 16 vs 30; NSDF 16 vs 30; COPE 12 vs 17; AACUM 10 vs 27; BOSA 7 vs 22; MAYIBUYE 7 vs 11; AAC 5 vs 11; AASD 4 vs 8; ACIM 3 vs 5; SUN 3 vs 4; UCDP 3 vs 11; IFP 2 vs 5; PMC 2 vs 4; URF 2 vs 7; APC 1 vs 8; LABOUR 1 vs 2; ACT 0 vs 10; MSPV 0 vs 6. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 122 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.
