About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 2 018 · spoilt 35 · special votes 279 · All 2 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 2 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 2 voting districts here (2 022 of 5 514). The IEC publishes 36.7%.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 34 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 112 vs 3 455; SACP 416 vs 1 115; EFF 235 vs 739; DA 103 vs 319; MKP 43 vs 96; DOP 19 vs 41; MAYIBUYE 13 vs 32; SADA 7 vs 15; VF PLUS 6 vs 24; SAMEBA 5 vs 12; BOSA 3 vs 4; BPSA 3 vs 10; PA 3 vs 4; AFC 2 vs 3; APC 2 vs 7; FISA 2 vs 6; OHM 2 vs 4; SDP 2 vs 4; DRA 1 vs 5; ACDP 0 vs 7; ACP 0 vs 1; ActionSA 0 vs 28; ASCO 0 vs 2; ATM 0 vs 24; AZAPO 0 vs 1; BTW 0 vs 2; IFP 0 vs 1; INGUBO 0 vs 2; KCDP 0 vs 2; LBKP 0 vs 1; MSM 0 vs 1; PAC 0 vs 8; UAT 0 vs 20; US 0 vs 4. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 53 times in 2 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: Elias Motsoaledi's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
