Earlier results are those of the ward's own voting districts, matched by voting-district number; new or split voting districts have no earlier results. So the 2021 and 2024 figures cover the same area as closely as the published data allows; they are not this ward’s result in those years. Shares are of valid votes. We make no predictions.
