About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 2 485 · spoilt 21 · special votes 67 · All 3 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 3 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 3 voting districts here (2 511 of 5 465). The IEC publishes 46.0%.
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 26 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 665 vs 2 009; SDP 527 vs 1 531; DA 426 vs 1 279; MKP 365 vs 1 070; EFF 214 vs 632; ATM 89 vs 243; VF PLUS 43 vs 131; AIMSA 25 vs 55; IRC 20 vs 36; APCPARTY 19 vs 20; MAYIBUYE 18 vs 57; SACP 14 vs 76; LABOUR 13 vs 24; AIC 11 vs 41; SKCP 6 vs 11; GMMRM 4 vs 7; ECOFORUM 3 vs 4; UIM 2 vs 18; ACDP 0 vs 21; ACP 0 vs 4; ActionSA 0 vs 69; IFP 0 vs 45; MPF 0 vs 2; PA 0 vs 21; PAC 0 vs 2; UAT 0 vs 9. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 68 times in 3 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: Govan Mbeki's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
