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

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.
Ward: choose a person. PR: choose a party.
The candidate with the most votes in the whole ward wins one seat. They do not need more than 50%.
PR means proportional representation. Party-list seats balance the council’s overall party representation.
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.
