About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 7 082 · spoilt 138 · special votes 746 · All 7 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 7 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 7 voting districts here (6 874 of 19 657). The IEC publishes 36.1%.

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): ANC 4 260 vs 8 251; DA 772 vs 1 566; EFF 692 vs 1 426; UDM 337 vs 622; ATM 235 vs 472; ActionSA 169 vs 381; VF PLUS 123 vs 264; MKP 58 vs 129; MAYIBUYE 48 vs 75; AIC 37 vs 71; PAC 37 vs 68; SACP 34 vs 79; PA 32 vs 51; COPE 23 vs 49; GOOD 22 vs 43; IFP 9 vs 17; A.C.C. 8 vs 13; ACDP 8 vs 13; CCC 7 vs 15; BOSA 6 vs 13; EKHETHU 4 vs 5; AAC 3 vs 15; CMC 2 vs 3; D.P.A 2 vs 3; OLA 2 vs 3; ALJAMA 1 vs 2; K.A.P 1 vs 2; OHM 1 vs 2; AAAC 0 vs 1; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 30; AVR 0 vs 2; CKP 0 vs 1; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 0 vs 1; H.O.I. 0 vs 1; LAND 0 vs 1; MF 0 vs 4; NFP 0 vs 1; United Democratic Front Party 0 vs 1; O.D 0 vs 2; TRUTH 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 136 times in 7 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.
