About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 3 809 · spoilt 17 · special votes 217 · 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 (3 809 of 6 576). The IEC publishes 57.9%.
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 29 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 2 212 vs 6 570; ANC 720 vs 2 221; VF PLUS 381 vs 1 188; EFF 145 vs 400; ActionSA 107 vs 339; VFC 54 vs 199; SACP 33 vs 99; PA 22 vs 39; AIC 20 vs 30; ACT 19 vs 54; ACDP 17 vs 48; MKP 17 vs 27; ATM 11 vs 40; PAC 7 vs 15; URF 7 vs 13; ACP 3 vs 10; AAC 2 vs 3; ALM 2 vs 7; IFP 2 vs 5; COPE 1 vs 11; ECOFORUM 1 vs 5; LABOUR 1 vs 4; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 1; ARU 0 vs 1; FISA 0 vs 1; ICOSA 0 vs 4; MAYIBUYE 0 vs 4; TRUTH 0 vs 1; UAT 0 vs 4. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 77 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: Matjhabeng's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
