About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 12 550 · spoilt 146 · special votes 622 · All 6 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 6 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 6 voting districts here (12 698 of 21 868). The IEC publishes 58.5%.
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 2021 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 67 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 4 621 vs 9 242; ActionSA 2 159 vs 4 711; ANC 1 606 vs 3 437; VF PLUS 1 101 vs 2 065; EFF 658 vs 1 335; PA 642 vs 1 205; MKP 461 vs 866; RISE 175 vs 346; ATM 131 vs 259; IFP 130 vs 233; ACDP 104 vs 306; BOSA 60 vs 104; TRUTH 40 vs 56; PMC 31 vs 55; MAYIBUYE 30 vs 40; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 27 vs 55; PAC 27 vs 55; SACP 25 vs 52; AIC 20 vs 30; ACT 17 vs 32; AZAPO 14 vs 21; KYP 14 vs 28; ALJAMA 12 vs 20; POJ 11 vs 23; UMBRELLA 11 vs 18; AHC 8 vs 19; CCC 7 vs 12; APC 6 vs 11; COPE 4 vs 13; IMS 4 vs 6; LBKP 4 vs 6; MOVE 4 vs 6; AUC 3 vs 5; AZANIA 3 vs 5; UIM 3 vs 4; COMBAT 2 vs 5; ECOFORUM 2 vs 4; SDP 2 vs 4; VSA 2 vs 4; AEF 1 vs 14; ARA 1 vs 15; EKHETHU 1 vs 3; MF 1 vs 2; AACUM 0 vs 8; ACP 0 vs 1; AGF 0 vs 1; BPSA 0 vs 5; CFM 0 vs 2; CHANGE 0 vs 1; CKP 0 vs 1; FISA 0 vs 2; GAZA 0 vs 3; GFSA 0 vs 1; ICM 0 vs 4; IN 0 vs 1; LABOUR 0 vs 1; LAND 0 vs 4; MAWUSA 0 vs 3; NADECO 0 vs 1; NFP 0 vs 2; Umphakathi Warona 0 vs 3; O.D 0 vs 3; OHM 0 vs 1; PCP 0 vs 1; PRO SA 0 vs 1; SAPCO 0 vs 3; UAT 0 vs 9. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 169 times in 6 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.
