About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 2 101 · spoilt 47 · special votes 0 · 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 (2 063 of 5 030). The IEC publishes 41.8%.
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 33 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 747 vs 2 207; DA 350 vs 1 050; EFF 190 vs 621; MKP 182 vs 543; ActionSA 91 vs 297; SDP 77 vs 216; HOPE 71 vs 207; IFP 66 vs 174; AST. 62 vs 96; AEM 42 vs 124; VF PLUS 38 vs 126; MHRF 37 vs 69; UAT 27 vs 81; AIC 22 vs 35; SACP 17 vs 47; LABOUR 11 vs 20; MAYIBUYE 11 vs 31; I.Q.Z 5 vs 18; ACP 4 vs 6; INGUBO 4 vs 11; ACDP 0 vs 8; ADP 0 vs 3; AMP 0 vs 9; APC 0 vs 2; ATM 0 vs 48; BPSA 0 vs 1; H.U.C.D 0 vs 23; MICO 0 vs 1; OLH 0 vs 3; PA 0 vs 1; PAC 0 vs 3; SPP 0 vs 4; TRUTH 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 57 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: Steve Tshwete's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
