About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 11 404 · spoilt 31 · special votes 639 · All 4 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 4 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 4 voting districts here (11 425 of 17 820). The IEC publishes 64.1%.
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.
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 40 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 9 522 vs 18 769; ActionSA 544 vs 1 279; ANC 465 vs 865; VF PLUS 369 vs 815; EFF 154 vs 330; RISE 81 vs 175; MKP 78 vs 141; ACDP 46 vs 93; BOSA 34 vs 62; SACP 16 vs 30; MAYIBUYE 10 vs 23; PA 10 vs 15; PMC 5 vs 12; MF 4 vs 8; PAC 4 vs 7; ALJAMA 3 vs 9; OHM 3 vs 5; TRUTH 3 vs 5; ARA 2 vs 4; P 2 vs 3; AACUM 1 vs 4; FISA 1 vs 3; ICM 1 vs 2; LABOUR 1 vs 2; MOVE 1 vs 2; SUN 1 vs 2; ACT 0 vs 3; ALC 0 vs 2; APC 0 vs 1; ATM 0 vs 29; CKP 0 vs 2; COPE 0 vs 3; DOP 0 vs 6; IFP 0 vs 15; LAND 0 vs 1; MSJ 0 vs 1; Umphakathi Kai One Party 0 vs 1; O.D 0 vs 2; UAT 0 vs 3; UIM 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 75 times in 4 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.
