About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 4 577 · spoilt 303 · special votes 369 · All 9 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 9 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 9 voting districts here (4 503 of 7 560). The IEC publishes 60.6%.
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): IND 1 227 vs 3 651; MKP 1 090 vs 3 356; IFP 937 vs 2 681; ANC 550 vs 1 637; DA 204 vs 679; EFF 69 vs 238; AIC 29 vs 62; KZNI 19 vs 46; AFNA 18 vs 62; PA 17 vs 39; NFP 14 vs 35; ActionSA 12 vs 42; ATM 12 vs 26; A.B.C.D. 11 vs 30; SACP 10 vs 22; JEP 8 vs 24; MF 6 vs 9; NGG 5 vs 13; AMC.ROY. 4 vs 123; MAYIBUYE 4 vs 20; OHM 4 vs 5; PAC 4 vs 7; VF PLUS 4 vs 12; AMSA 3 vs 5; TRUTH 3 vs 13; ACC 2 vs 10; B.M. 1 vs 3; ABC 0 vs 14; ACDP 0 vs 8; ARU 0 vs 8; MA AFRIKA 0 vs 1; SAF 0 vs 2; UM 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 184 times in 9 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.
