About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 3 058 · spoilt 82 · special votes 0 · 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 (3 040 of 5 939). The IEC publishes 51.3%.
Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 30 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 966 vs 2 908; SACP 966 vs 2 596; EFF 318 vs 943; DA 296 vs 919; MKP 109 vs 323; ActionSA 84 vs 253; MHRF 44 vs 64; AST. 33 vs 62; IFP 29 vs 82; VF PLUS 25 vs 78; HOPE 24 vs 75; AIC 22 vs 29; UAT 17 vs 50; MAYIBUYE 14 vs 39; I.Q.Z 10 vs 27; SDP 9 vs 34; INGUBO 5 vs 8; AEM 3 vs 10; ACP 2 vs 7; ACDP 0 vs 4; ADP 0 vs 1; APC 0 vs 3; ATM 0 vs 27; H.U.C.D 0 vs 2; LABOUR 0 vs 1; MICO 0 vs 1; PA 0 vs 3; PAC 0 vs 1; SPP 0 vs 6; TRUTH 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 65 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: Steve Tshwete's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
