About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 2 392 · spoilt 24 · special votes 12 · 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 (2 388 of 4 705). The IEC publishes 50.9%.

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 20 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): MKP 969 vs 3 034; ANC 618 vs 1 811; IFP 440 vs 1 275; DA 167 vs 505; SACP 57 vs 151; AIC 21 vs 26; ATM 21 vs 67; EFF 20 vs 50; A.B.C.D. 19 vs 47; NFP 13 vs 42; ARU 7 vs 17; AC 4 vs 5; MAYIBUYE 4 vs 29; APEMO 2 vs 6; B.M. 2 vs 3; UCM 2 vs 7; ACDP 0 vs 18; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 1; NPA 0 vs 3; VF PLUS 0 vs 4. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 48 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: Alfred Duma's DC 40% result.

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