About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 2 802 · spoilt 52 · special votes 117 · All 5 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 5 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 5 voting districts here (2 809 of 4 600). The IEC publishes 61.1%.
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 26 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): EFF 970 vs 2 759; IFP 445 vs 1 410; MKP 445 vs 1 397; ANC 337 vs 1 039; DA 331 vs 1 006; AEF 62 vs 174; NPA 34 vs 107; SACP 19 vs 68; NACOL 14 vs 30; I.L.P 13 vs 23; SIP 13 vs 24; NFP 11 vs 29; UDM 11 vs 23; ACDP 10 vs 41; AIC 6 vs 22; MAYIBUYE 6 vs 15; UCDP 4 vs 19; GJDP 3 vs 9; PAC 3 vs 6; ATM 2 vs 6; JC 2 vs 9; KZNI 2 vs 11; AMC.ROY. 1 vs 4; ARU 0 vs 1; ASEP 0 vs 3; SDP 0 vs 4. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 102 times in 5 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: Inkosi uMtubatuba's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
