About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 2 748 · spoilt 126 · special votes 312 · All 11 voting districts in (the IEC's voting-district results so far, out of its list of voting districts for this election)

PR ballot figures for this ward are the sum of the IEC's results for its 11 voting districts; the IEC publishes the ward ballot per ward and the PR ballot per voting district.

Turnout is calculated as PR ballots cast ÷ registered voters, from the IEC's results for the 11 voting districts here (2 733 of 6 212). The IEC publishes 44.3%.

The winner's share of registered voters is calculated: the winner's votes on the IEC's ward ballot ÷ the registered voters of the ward's voting districts.

Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 26 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): SACP 1 227 vs 3 675; ANC 823 vs 2 448; UDM 250 vs 524; EFF 159 vs 517; ATM 84 vs 280; DA 36 vs 129; MKP 15 vs 44; MAYIBUYE 4 vs 12; URF 4 vs 6; AIC 3 vs 23; AUC 3 vs 16; OHM 3 vs 4; PEC 3 vs 8; PAC 2 vs 8; AMC.ROY. 1 vs 33; ACDP 0 vs 4; ACT 0 vs 12; ALJAMA 0 vs 6; ASEP 0 vs 5; COPE 0 vs 1; IFP 0 vs 2; IRP 0 vs 4; LAND 0 vs 4; PA 0 vs 2; QINA 0 vs 2; THE VOICE 0 vs 11. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 124 times in 11 voting districts. In local elections the IEC also publishes each party's total across the ward, PR and DC 40% ballots. For these parties (by IEC party number) that total differs from the party's votes on the ballots themselves. We show each ballot's own votes. Each voting district's own page lists the IEC's figures.

Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.

The DC 40% ? ballot is published per municipality: King Sabata Dalindyebo's DC 40% result.

Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
