About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 2 276 · spoilt 20 · special votes 56 · 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 (2 225 of 4 974). 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 25 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 853 vs 2 595; MKP 419 vs 1 118; EFF 269 vs 731; DA 258 vs 781; ActionSA 205 vs 667; UCDP 48 vs 144; ASM 41 vs 116; SACP 41 vs 107; IFP 35 vs 101; SEDIMO 29 vs 67; ACDP 16 vs 45; VF PLUS 16 vs 49; MAYIBUYE 11 vs 31; AANDC 4 vs 9; APC 4 vs 8; Bophuthatswana Civil Movement 4 vs 67; KOPANO 2 vs 5; FFD 1 vs 2; ACP 0 vs 1; AIC 0 vs 17; ARC 0 vs 4; ATM 0 vs 2; PA 0 vs 12; PAC 0 vs 3; UAT 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 58 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: Mafikeng's DC 40% result.

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