About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
special votes 6 171 · All 162 voting districts in (the IEC's voting-district results so far, out of its list of voting districts for this election)
In local elections the IEC adds votes across the ward, PR and district ballots, so we show valid votes per ballot instead of one "votes cast" total.
Turnout is calculated as PR ballots cast ÷ registered voters, from the IEC's results for the 162 voting districts here (51 920 of 98 126). The IEC publishes 53.0%.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 347 times in 22 wards. 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 ward's own page lists the IEC's figures.
Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
