Ward + municipal PR votes. Missing and grouped entries are not assumed to be zero. Published boundaries may differ between elections.

All history data (JSON)

History data & sources

Ward + municipal PR votes. Connecting bands show the same party’s share or seats between elections, not individual voters moving between parties. Select a year to inspect its values; use the election-year selector to explore its results and places.

The chart names the five largest parties across these elections. The vote list also names parties gaining at least 2 percentage points since the previous election; remaining votes are combined under Other. Other’s change compares the same group of parties in both elections. Missing values remain unavailable.

  • All points use the same ballot basis. Ballot totals are not counts of individual voters.
  • Feed coverage and seat allocations are separate from the national declaration: missing figures remain missing and estimates remain estimates. Corrections and re-votes may follow.
  • Missing or grouped party rows remain gaps unless a complete, ungrouped list establishes zero votes.
  • Municipal boundaries can change between elections. Published area results are not boundary-adjusted.

Administrations & sources

MISTRA records the administrations that governed after the 2021 election, through 28 February 2026. The latest recorded administration is shown below, followed by its predecessors. Party roles and officeholders are recorded at formation; later changes may appear in the notes.

Members at formation · minority administration · Around 23 Feb 2026 · recorded active at source cutoff

Inaugural mayor: S. Kunene (IFP)

Source notes: The ABC, the CFP and the DA are coded Unknown. The motion that formed this administration needed at least four votes beyond the IFP's nine, and no source was found recording how any party voted.

    Around 23 Feb 2026 → Active at cutoff · 28 Feb 2026

    Members at formation. Inaugural mayor: S. Kunene.

    The ABC, the CFP and the DA are coded Unknown. The motion that formed this administration needed at least four votes beyond the IFP's nine, and no source was found recording how any party voted.

  2. ANC + CFP + EFF

    27 Jun 2023 → 23 Feb 2026 · MONC

    Members at formation. Inaugural mayor: B. Hadebe.

    Speaker S. Myaka was removed by a council vote in December 2024 and S. Ndlela of the IFP, an opposition party, was elected in his place. No new administration followed, and an office won against one does not make its holder a partner.

  3. ABC + IFP + TSSA

    30 Jan 2023 → 27 Jun 2023 · MONC

    Members at formation. Outside support: DA. Inaugural mayor: S. Kunene.

    During this period, a by-election in March 2023 replaced an independent councillor with one from the IFP, taking the IFP from eight seats to nine.

    Release note: deputy mayor vacancy date conflicts with a financial statement.

Feed coverage and seat allocations are separate from the national declaration: missing figures remain missing and estimates remain estimates. Corrections and re-votes may follow. Reporting progress measures voting districts, not turnout.

Historical comparisons use published area results. Boundaries may change between elections. Vote shares use the ballot labelled on each chart; ballots are not individual voters.

Government comparisons use the confirmed pre-election administration when available, otherwise the latest dated record. The new government appears when its membership is confirmed. A retained or changed government requires confirmed records on both sides; seats alone cannot establish it.

Vote percentages beside council seats combine ward and municipal PR ballots. Seat counts include both ward and PR councillors.

Seat calculation & source

These are the ward and PR seats published by the IEC. The totals add up to all 25 council seats. Feed coverage and seat allocations are separate from the national declaration: missing figures remain missing and estimates remain estimates. Corrections and re-votes may follow. A seat majority does not establish a governing agreement or who will become mayor.

Ward vs PR ballots

Ward: choose a person. PR: choose a party.

Ward ballot

The candidate with the most votes in the whole ward wins one seat. They do not need more than 50%.

Municipal PR ballot

PR means proportional representation. Party-list seats balance the council’s overall party representation.

Two ballots work together

Party ward votes and municipal PR votes both count towards the party’s overall seat allocation.

Outside metros, voters also have a separate district PR ballot. An independent can stand in a ward but not on a party PR list.
