About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 3 595 · spoilt 51 · special votes 636 · 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 (3 584 of 7 863). The IEC publishes 45.8%.

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 32 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 2 111 vs 6 379; SACP 665 vs 1 871; MAYIBUYE 191 vs 559; EFF 166 vs 548; MKP 108 vs 308; ActionSA 90 vs 280; DA 82 vs 265; ATM 26 vs 70; APC 25 vs 80; COPE 20 vs 37; VF PLUS 20 vs 56; PAC 11 vs 14; Mahlo People’s Movement 8 vs 18; GAZANKUL 7 vs 14; DCM 5 vs 7; URF 3 vs 5; AUM 2 vs 4; GJDP 1 vs 2; LABOUR 1 vs 3; SDP 1 vs 3; TWMP 1 vs 4; ACDP 0 vs 21; AEF 0 vs 8; BLOM 0 vs 1; BRA 0 vs 5; BTCP 0 vs 2; GAZA 0 vs 6; IFP 0 vs 1; NFP 0 vs 1; PA 0 vs 19; SAHRA 0 vs 3; UAT 0 vs 16. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 115 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: Bushbuckridge's DC 40% result.

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