The municipal council consists of thirty-four members elected by
mixed-member proportional representation. Seventeen councillors are elected by
first-past-the-post voting in seventeen
wards, while the remaining seventeen are chosen from
party lists so that the total number of party representatives is proportional to the number of votes received. In the
election of 1 November 2021 the
African National Congress (ANC) won an increased majority of twenty-five seats on the council. The following table shows the results of the election. ==References==
