Big Five Hlabisa Local Municipality elections
The Big Five Hlabisa Local Municipality council consists of twenty-seven members elected by mixed-member proportional representation. Fourteen councillors are elected by first-past-the-post voting in fourteen wards, while the remaining thirteen are chosen from party lists so that the total number of party representatives is proportional to the number of votes received. It was established for the August 2016 local elections by the merging of The Big 5 False Bay and Hlabisa local municipalities. In the election of 3 August 2016 the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) won a majority of thirteen seats on the council. In 2021 the IFP won an increased majority of fifteen. Results
