About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 2 419 · spoilt 50 · special votes 319 · All 5 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 5 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 5 voting districts here (2 404 of 4 520). The IEC publishes 53.5%.
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 34 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 957 vs 2 840; ACM 779 vs 2 383; DA 198 vs 574; EFF 141 vs 423; MAP16 75 vs 213; DPSA 53 vs 143; SARKO 32 vs 99; ATM 26 vs 70; MAYIBUYE 21 vs 49; AHC 14 vs 29; APEMO 12 vs 31; AMC.ROY. 9 vs 23; SACP 8 vs 24; ALJAMA 7 vs 15; L.E.M. 7 vs 8; MKP 7 vs 10; ECOFORUM 6 vs 14; BCMT 5 vs 16; VF PLUS 4 vs 15; ACT 3 vs 23; COPE 2 vs 4; OHM 1 vs 3; AASD 0 vs 2; ACDP 0 vs 5; ActionSA 0 vs 7; AIC 0 vs 4; AULA 0 vs 2; CFA 0 vs 5; IFP 0 vs 2; Nketoane Community Movement 0 vs 5; PA 0 vs 4; PAC 0 vs 3; SSDF 0 vs 1; UAT 0 vs 17. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 106 times in 5 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: Maluti a Phofung's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
