About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 1 773 · spoilt 40 · special votes 145 · All 10 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 10 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 10 voting districts here (1 814 of 3 774). The IEC publishes 48.1%.
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 20 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 132 vs 3 451; UDM 141 vs 458; EFF 95 vs 266; MKP 93 vs 283; DA 82 vs 258; AIC 39 vs 64; BPM 35 vs 100; ATM 30 vs 120; PAC 21 vs 65; SACP 17 vs 67; AHC 11 vs 22; MAYIBUYE 10 vs 68; ACDP 5 vs 16; PA 2 vs 6; PATSA 1 vs 2; A.D 0 vs 9; AMAMBO 0 vs 1; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 2; IFP 0 vs 1; VF PLUS 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 118 times in 10 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: Mnquma's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
