About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 2 540 · spoilt 26 · special votes 243 · All 4 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 4 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 4 voting districts here (2 534 of 4 591). The IEC publishes 55.4%.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 22 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): IFP 974 vs 2 946; MKP 884 vs 2 704; ANC 477 vs 1 352; DA 46 vs 161; PPP 26 vs 55; ATM 25 vs 66; EFF 14 vs 44; NFP 14 vs 48; SACP 11 vs 37; GFSA 9 vs 16; PCF 8 vs 27; NPA 7 vs 14; VF PLUS 5 vs 10; NAPF 4 vs 7; ActionSA 3 vs 5; PAC 3 vs 12; AEF 2 vs 10; MAYIBUYE 2 vs 4; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 2; ARU 0 vs 2; GJDP 0 vs 4; UWO 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 65 times in 4 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: uPhongolo's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
