About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 1 672 · spoilt 48 · special votes 39 · All 4 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 4 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 4 voting districts here (1 741 of 4 029). The IEC publishes 43.3%.

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 24 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 923 vs 2 811; EFF 193 vs 593; DA 130 vs 407; ActionSA 76 vs 223; PA 65 vs 166; UCDP 51 vs 131; MKP 44 vs 124; ASM 33 vs 94; AANDC 23 vs 39; Bophuthatswana Civil Movement 23 vs 109; UAT 18 vs 48; APC 12 vs 23; MAYIBUYE 12 vs 29; SACP 7 vs 24; KOPANO 6 vs 12; FFD 4 vs 13; VF PLUS 4 vs 18; ACDP 0 vs 20; AIC 0 vs 42; ARC 0 vs 4; ATM 0 vs 6; IFP 0 vs 6; PAC 0 vs 5; SDP 0 vs 2. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 79 times in 4 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.
