About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 3 163 · spoilt 10 · special votes 216 · All 2 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 2 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 2 voting districts here (3 157 of 4 474). The IEC publishes 70.7%.

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.

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 23 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 2 633 vs 7 919; VF PLUS 374 vs 1 083; ANC 57 vs 180; ActionSA 28 vs 103; EFF 26 vs 79; ACDP 18 vs 28; ATM 6 vs 9; MAYIBUYE 2 vs 4; PA 2 vs 6; PAC 2 vs 5; SACP 2 vs 4; IFP 1 vs 3; OHM 1 vs 2; VAAL 1 vs 2; AAA 0 vs 1; ACP 0 vs 1; ACSA 0 vs 1; ALJAMA 0 vs 1; COPE 0 vs 2; MKP 0 vs 21; TYM 0 vs 1; UAT 0 vs 2; VDM 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 31 times in 2 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: Midvaal's DC 40% result.

Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
