About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 4 368 · spoilt 108 · special votes 154 · All 6 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 6 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 6 voting districts here (4 377 of 7 910). The IEC publishes 55.5%.
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 33 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): MKP 1 841 vs 6 071; ANC 1 600 vs 4 627; DA 123 vs 503; IND 118 vs 395; IFP 75 vs 241; ActionSA 29 vs 145; A.B.C.D. 19 vs 26; EFF 11 vs 74; MAYIBUYE 9 vs 25; UM 9 vs 15; AIC 7 vs 43; NFP 7 vs 36; SACP 7 vs 25; VF PLUS 6 vs 25; ARU 5 vs 13; PA 5 vs 15; NGG 4 vs 14; KZNI 3 vs 18; PAC 3 vs 5; MF 2 vs 3; OHM 2 vs 3; AFNA 1 vs 5; AMC.ROY. 1 vs 17; AZAPO 1 vs 2; JEP 1 vs 2; ABC 0 vs 9; ACC 0 vs 2; ACDP 0 vs 4; APEMO 0 vs 3; ATM 0 vs 26; B.M. 0 vs 1; SAF 0 vs 1; TRUTH 0 vs 5. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 128 times in 6 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: Msunduzi's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
