About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 7 578 · spoilt 154 · special votes 236 · 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 (7 554 of 14 950). The IEC publishes 50.9%.
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 61 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): MKP 4 807 vs 9 516; ANC 1 582 vs 3 217; IFP 288 vs 575; EFF 175 vs 335; DA 90 vs 168; ATM 83 vs 175; ActionSA 62 vs 146; SACP 46 vs 83; ARECO 23 vs 29; ABC 20 vs 42; KZNI 20 vs 26; AIC 18 vs 73; AUC 15 vs 24; ARU 13 vs 22; AMC.ROY. 12 vs 22; AZAPO 10 vs 12; PRM 10 vs 22; IPP 8 vs 25; PAC 8 vs 10; AHC 7 vs 17; NFP 7 vs 9; ARM.JBS 6 vs 10; VF PLUS 6 vs 13; AC 5 vs 14; APF 5 vs 8; JEP 5 vs 13; MAYIBUYE 5 vs 6; TRUTH 4 vs 10; AEF 3 vs 10; MF 3 vs 11; MOSA 3 vs 5; 1860NICC 2 vs 3; ACC 2 vs 10; B.M. 2 vs 4; INDIANCP 2 vs 6; PEOPLESA 2 vs 3; TA 2 vs 5; AAC 1 vs 8; ACDP 1 vs 5; AFNA 1 vs 2; ANOSA 1 vs 3; ASC 1 vs 2; EKHETHU 1 vs 2; PFU 1 vs 2; Shall-X - A Shall-X Party 1 vs 4; UCDP 1 vs 4; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 18; ADEC 0 vs 1; ARA 0 vs 2; ARRC. 0 vs 1; DLC 0 vs 2; GJDP 0 vs 2; IYM 0 vs 2; O.D 0 vs 1; OHM 0 vs 4; PA 0 vs 4; PFP 0 vs 1; PPF 0 vs 1; SAPM 0 vs 1; SDF 0 vs 1; UWO 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 137 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.
