About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 1 712 · spoilt 13 · special votes 115 · 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 (1 754 of 3 369). The IEC publishes 52.5%.

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 25 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 684 vs 1 992; DA 519 vs 1 585; EFF 128 vs 409; Moqhaka Community Forum 86 vs 281; ActionSA 62 vs 185; UD4 54 vs 162; VF PLUS 36 vs 115; MAYIBUYE 35 vs 76; AZAPO 23 vs 24; SACP 16 vs 61; MKP 15 vs 16; PAC 12 vs 21; ATM 9 vs 29; AIC 8 vs 16; FDCM 5 vs 18; ACDP 3 vs 15; ECOFORUM 3 vs 4; IFP 1 vs 4; ACT 0 vs 15; ALM 0 vs 4; COPE 0 vs 5; LENTSWE 0 vs 1; MCA 0 vs 2; MPPF 0 vs 1; PA 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 72 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: Moqhaka's DC 40% result.

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