{{main|Setsoto Local Municipality elections}}
The municipal council consists of thirty-three members elected by [[mixed-member proportional representation]]. Seventeen councillors are elected by [[first-past-the-post voting]] in seventeen [[ward (South Africa)|wards]], while the remaining sixteen are chosen from [[party list]]s so that the total number of party representatives is proportional to the number of votes received. In the [[2021 South African municipal elections|election of 1 November 2021]] the [[African National Congress]] (ANC) won a majority of seventeen seats on the council.
The following table shows the results of the election.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Election Result Table for LGE2021 — Setsoto |url=https://wikitable.frith.dev/lge2021/FS191 |access-date=2023-10-28 |website=wikitable.frith.dev}}</ref>
