About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 11 187 · spoilt 111 · special votes 336 · All 8 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 8 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 8 voting districts here (11 246 of 20 047). The IEC publishes 56.3%.
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 61 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 6 320 vs 13 477; IFP 830 vs 1 533; DLC 626 vs 1 150; ERPM 583 vs 995; ActionSA 461 vs 712; MKP 361 vs 729; ANC 345 vs 739; MF 269 vs 414; 1860NICC 246 vs 479; ACDP 113 vs 189; VF PLUS 112 vs 235; PFP 91 vs 164; PEOPLESA 87 vs 221; ADEC 84 vs 110; ALJAMA 80 vs 144; INDIANCP 80 vs 145; PA 76 vs 127; IPP 39 vs 86; EFF 37 vs 79; GJDP 32 vs 58; TA 20 vs 30; MOSA 15 vs 27; PFU 14 vs 23; ACC 12 vs 22; AMC.ROY. 10 vs 13; Shall-X - A Shall-X Party 10 vs 12; TRUTH 10 vs 15; KZNI 9 vs 19; PRM 9 vs 11; ATM 8 vs 17; AIC 7 vs 18; NDF 7 vs 12; AAC 6 vs 13; SDF 6 vs 12; SUN 6 vs 9; AC 5 vs 9; ARA 5 vs 8; ASC 4 vs 6; AUC 3 vs 4; JEP 3 vs 6; SACP 3 vs 4; UCDP 3 vs 6; APF 2 vs 4; EKHETHU 2 vs 13; PAC 2 vs 4; B.M. 1 vs 7; SDP 1 vs 2; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 1; ABC 0 vs 1; ACT 0 vs 2; AEF 0 vs 2; AHC 0 vs 9; ARU 0 vs 2; IYM 0 vs 2; MAWUSA 0 vs 4; NFP 0 vs 9; NPA 0 vs 3; O.D 0 vs 2; PPF 0 vs 15; SAPM 0 vs 1; UWO 0 vs 7.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 268 times in 8 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.
