About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 2 923 · spoilt 15 · special votes 82 · All 4 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 4 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 4 voting districts here (2 803 of 7 173). The IEC publishes 40.9%.

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 27 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): UDM 1 194 vs 2 422; ANC 808 vs 2 390; DA 277 vs 1 056; EFF 192 vs 712; ATM 165 vs 732; SACP 96 vs 317; PEC 43 vs 198; MKP 41 vs 169; PA 23 vs 74; MRRA 16 vs 117; PAC 15 vs 91; THE VOICE 9 vs 18; AUC 7 vs 25; LAND 7 vs 14; MAYIBUYE 7 vs 30; AIC 3 vs 19; IRP 2 vs 8; URF 2 vs 7; OHM 1 vs 3; ACDP 0 vs 21; ACT 0 vs 15; ALJAMA 0 vs 1; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 125; ASEP 0 vs 1; COPE 0 vs 6; IFP 0 vs 8; QINA 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 80 times in 4 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.
