About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 1 686 · spoilt 35 · special votes 87 · All 1 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 1 voting district; 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 1 voting district here (1 686 of 3 046). The IEC publishes 55.4%.

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 18 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): MKP 642 vs 1 981; ANC 544 vs 1 595; DA 226 vs 685; IND 167 vs 453; EFF 32 vs 102; IFP 23 vs 67; ATM 8 vs 28; SACP 2 vs 6; MAYIBUYE 1 vs 5; ActionSA 0 vs 1; AIC 0 vs 9; ARU 0 vs 1; B.M. 0 vs 1; KZNI 0 vs 1; NGG 0 vs 2; TRUTH 0 vs 2; UM 0 vs 1; VF PLUS 0 vs 5. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 19 times in 1 voting district. 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: Mpofana's DC 40% result.

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