The 2001 census divided the municipality into the following main places:
The municipal council consists of thirty-eight members elected by mixed-member proportional representation. Nineteen councillors are elected by first-past-the-post voting in nineteen wards, while the remaining nineteen 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 a majority of twenty-one seats on the council.
The following table shows the results of the election.
The municipality was described as "the epicentre of political assassinations" after a number of assassinations.
