Source: the IEC’s certified candidate list of 16 September 2026. Ward boundaries, and the places named for each ward (where its voting stations are), come from the Municipal Demarcation Board; smaller places without a voting station aren’t named. See also the 2026 elections in numbers. Candidates can still withdraw; check with the IEC if something looks wrong.
