Dr Beyers Naudé Local Municipality elections
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The council of the Dr Beyers Naudé Local Municipality is elected every five years by a system of mixed-member proportional representation. Twelve of the twenty-four councillors are elected by first-past-the-post voting from individual wards, while the other twelve are appointed from party lists so that the total number of party representatives is proportional to the number of votes received. By-elections are held to replace the councillors elected by wards if a vacancy occurs.
The Dr Beyers Naudé Local Municipality was created in 2016 by the merger of the Camdeboo, Ikwezi and Baviaans local municipalities. For elections in the predecessor municipalities, see:
