About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 2 559 · spoilt 86 · special votes 249 · 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 (2 614 of 5 147). The IEC publishes 51.0%.
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 31 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 908 vs 2 701; DA 712 vs 2 186; VFC 243 vs 832; EFF 179 vs 544; ACT 95 vs 275; ActionSA 73 vs 256; MKP 65 vs 132; VF PLUS 49 vs 165; SACP 38 vs 113; MAYIBUYE 27 vs 78; AIC 18 vs 38; PAC 17 vs 30; URF 12 vs 22; ACDP 10 vs 32; APC 6 vs 10; ATM 6 vs 38; IFP 6 vs 11; ECOFORUM 2 vs 5; FISA 2 vs 4; ALM 1 vs 14; COPE 1 vs 13; AAC 0 vs 2; ACP 0 vs 2; ARU 0 vs 2; BAWS 0 vs 1; BBM 0 vs 1; ICOSA 0 vs 1; LABOUR 0 vs 3; NPM 0 vs 1; PA 0 vs 6; UAT 0 vs 4. 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.
