About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 2 765 · spoilt 92 · special votes 191 · All 6 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 6 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 6 voting districts here (2 752 of 5 936). The IEC publishes 46.6%.

The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2021 election for the same ward (the ward that covered the same area then), both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.

Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 30 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 261 vs 3 741; DA 802 vs 2 495; SACP 199 vs 551; EFF 127 vs 383; MKP 93 vs 194; ACT 62 vs 174; PAC 21 vs 33; ActionSA 17 vs 57; ATM 14 vs 42; AAC 13 vs 21; VF PLUS 10 vs 36; VFC 10 vs 43; APC 9 vs 19; MAYIBUYE 8 vs 37; COPE 7 vs 17; TRUTH 5 vs 10; ACDP 4 vs 25; URF 4 vs 13; IFP 3 vs 10; ALM 2 vs 8; BBM 1 vs 13; ECOFORUM 1 vs 5; ACP 0 vs 5; AIC 0 vs 34; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 11; ARU 0 vs 1; ICOSA 0 vs 1; NPM 0 vs 1; PA 0 vs 7; UAT 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 111 times in 6 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: Matjhabeng's DC 40% result.

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