About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 3 741 · spoilt 140 · special votes 356 · 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 (3 791 of 7 651). The IEC publishes 49.7%.
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.
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): ANC 1 468 vs 2 931; DA 610 vs 1 259; PA 412 vs 801; EFF 310 vs 646; SACP 263 vs 508; ActionSA 191 vs 399; VF PLUS 60 vs 172; MKP 53 vs 99; AASD 48 vs 78; MSPV 23 vs 42; ATM 20 vs 50; AHC 19 vs 33; AIC 15 vs 34; UAT 15 vs 31; PAC 13 vs 27; NSDF 11 vs 21; ACT 10 vs 17; MAYIBUYE 10 vs 16; BOSA 8 vs 15; COPE 8 vs 20; ACIM 7 vs 15; ACDP 6 vs 14; AAC 4 vs 10; APC 4 vs 16; AACUM 3 vs 5; SUN 3 vs 6; IFP 2 vs 3; LABOUR 2 vs 3; PMC 1 vs 2; UCDP 1 vs 3; URF 1 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 140 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.
