About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 3 217 · spoilt 31 · special votes 266 · 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 (3 214 of 6 003). The IEC publishes 53.6%.

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 21 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 550 vs 4 393; MKP 852 vs 2 751; IFP 597 vs 1 870; NFP 54 vs 151; NPA 47 vs 129; EFF 17 vs 50; PPP 15 vs 50; DA 11 vs 37; MAYIBUYE 9 vs 14; SACP 8 vs 21; GFSA 7 vs 10; PAC 5 vs 7; GJDP 4 vs 8; VF PLUS 4 vs 9; PCF 3 vs 14; ActionSA 2 vs 9; AEF 1 vs 3; A.B.C.D. 0 vs 4; ARU 0 vs 1; ATM 0 vs 17; UWO 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 77 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: uPhongolo's DC 40% result.

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