About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 2 858 · spoilt 21 · special votes 136 · 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 (2 866 of 5 435). The IEC publishes 53.7%.

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 996 vs 3 026; IFP 564 vs 1 641; EFF 355 vs 1 013; ANC 311 vs 917; DA 156 vs 471; ActionSA 128 vs 382; PVP 69 vs 183; NFP 68 vs 205; AAM 49 vs 138; IRC 39 vs 166; AUP 32 vs 80; ARU 19 vs 42; NDRF 17 vs 55; ATM 8 vs 19; SACP 6 vs 18; VF PLUS 3 vs 18; WAYO 3 vs 17; AEF 2 vs 9; LABOUR 2 vs 3; SDP 2 vs 4; A.B.C.D. 1 vs 4; CFP 1 vs 3; MAYIBUYE 1 vs 10; SSM 1 vs 8; ACC 0 vs 1; ACDP 0 vs 1; AMC.ROY. 0 vs 11; B.M. 0 vs 1; IA 0 vs 7; ISP 0 vs 8; JEP 0 vs 2; KZNI 0 vs 4; MPM 0 vs 36. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 78 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: Newcastle's DC 40% result.

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