About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 11 768 · spoilt 63 · special votes 1 402 · All 5 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 5 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 5 voting districts here (11 744 of 19 004). The IEC publishes 62.5%.
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.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 46 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 8 450 vs 16 899; VF PLUS 1 748 vs 3 377; ActionSA 607 vs 1 279; ANC 368 vs 766; EFF 182 vs 362; RISE 90 vs 197; MKP 67 vs 130; ACDP 61 vs 103; BOSA 23 vs 35; PA 9 vs 14; SACP 9 vs 14; MAYIBUYE 8 vs 16; ALJAMA 7 vs 16; AHC 6 vs 7; OHM 6 vs 10; APSP 5 vs 11; PAC 5 vs 7; AACUM 3 vs 16; MF 3 vs 9; UIM 3 vs 6; MOVE 2 vs 3; URF 2 vs 3; APC 1 vs 2; ARA 1 vs 2; EKHETHU 1 vs 2; IN 1 vs 5; P 1 vs 2; PMC 1 vs 9; SAPCO 1 vs 3; SDP 1 vs 3; SUN 1 vs 2; TRUTH 1 vs 3; ACT 0 vs 1; ATM 0 vs 29; AUC 0 vs 2; BPSA 0 vs 3; CKP 0 vs 2; DOP 0 vs 3; FISA 0 vs 3; GFSA 0 vs 1; ICM 0 vs 2; IFP 0 vs 10; MSJ 0 vs 3; NDD 0 vs 1; NFP 0 vs 3; PALCOF 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 106 times in 5 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.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
