About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 3 673 · spoilt 78 · special votes 982 · 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 (3 554 of 7 432). The IEC publishes 49.4%.
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 43 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 1 142 vs 3 570; ANC 930 vs 2 874; MKP 339 vs 975; EFF 303 vs 906; ActionSA 222 vs 695; PAC 133 vs 355; AZAPO 78 vs 137; SACP 61 vs 170; VF PLUS 51 vs 177; BUYISA 41 vs 69; MAYIBUYE 34 vs 104; ACSA 33 vs 77; ATM 25 vs 71; ACT 23 vs 41; DITAU 21 vs 39; VAAL 15 vs 45; APC 14 vs 16; ACDP 13 vs 29; ACP 12 vs 34; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 9 vs 17; PA 8 vs 21; SARKO 8 vs 22; IRC 7 vs 9; AAC 6 vs 8; BOSA 6 vs 18; COPE 4 vs 20; AEF 3 vs 9; ALJAMA 3 vs 5; FISA 3 vs 4; ARA 2 vs 12; MOVE 2 vs 5; AAA 1 vs 7; ANF 1 vs 2; UCO 1 vs 3; AAAIC 0 vs 1; ARRC. 0 vs 8; IFP 0 vs 16; LABOUR 0 vs 1; SDP 0 vs 2; TRUTH 0 vs 4; TYM 0 vs 3; UAT 0 vs 27; VDM 0 vs 6. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 140 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.
The DC 40% ? ballot is published per municipality: Emfuleni's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
