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 year selector in the results section to explore its 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.
  • 2026 figures are provisional and reflect votes counted so far; reporting completion is not an official declaration.
  • Missing or grouped party rows remain gaps unless a complete, ungrouped list establishes zero votes.
  • Ward boundaries can change between elections. These are published results for the same ward ID, not the same voters.

What is a ward?

One ward elects one councillor to the municipal council.

A ward

A part of a local or metro municipality. Its councillor represents residents on that council.

One seat

The ward candidate with the most votes wins, even with less than half the votes.

Winning a ward does not mean winning control of the whole council. The council also includes PR councillors.

What is a voting district?

A voting district is a small voting area inside a ward.

A voting district

Voters are assigned to a voting station in this area. These results show only that part of the ward.

Votes added together

Results from all the ward’s voting districts decide its councillor.

A lead here is not a ward win. A voting district has no council and is different from a district municipality.

IEC: 07 Nov 2026, 21:52 SAST · checked 08 Nov 2026, 00:54 SAST

Results remain provisional until declared by the IEC. 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 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.
