About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 3 123 · spoilt 37 · special votes 394 · All 3 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 3 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 3 voting districts here (3 113 of 5 814). The IEC publishes 53.9%.

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 40 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 031 vs 3 120; DA 812 vs 2 603; PAC 271 vs 773; ActionSA 248 vs 740; EFF 175 vs 527; MKP 168 vs 476; PA 106 vs 306; VF PLUS 72 vs 198; ACT 25 vs 47; ATM 19 vs 56; ACDP 17 vs 29; ACSA 17 vs 44; APC 16 vs 27; UAT 14 vs 33; SACP 13 vs 46; UCO 13 vs 34; FISA 12 vs 21; VAAL 7 vs 25; DITAU 5 vs 9; IRC 5 vs 6; ALJAMA 4 vs 5; ARA 4 vs 7; AZAPO 4 vs 5; MAYIBUYE 4 vs 11; MOVE 4 vs 6; TRUTH 4 vs 5; AEF 3 vs 8; BOSA 3 vs 10; COPE 2 vs 5; AAC 1 vs 6; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 1 vs 3; ACP 0 vs 4; ANF 0 vs 1; ARRC. 0 vs 9; IFP 0 vs 6; SARKO 0 vs 5; SDP 0 vs 1; SERA 0 vs 3; TYM 0 vs 4; VDM 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 92 times in 3 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: Emfuleni's DC 40% result.

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