About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 1 674 · spoilt 35 · special votes 89 · 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 (1 638 of 4 258). The IEC publishes 39.3%.
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 26 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 789 vs 2 390; EFF 204 vs 626; ActionSA 181 vs 520; DA 120 vs 375; PA 50 vs 127; Bophuthatswana Civil Movement 47 vs 141; MKP 36 vs 88; AIC 35 vs 82; MAYIBUYE 33 vs 96; SACP 33 vs 83; ACDP 24 vs 51; UCDP 24 vs 73; VF PLUS 20 vs 54; ASM 19 vs 51; ARC 11 vs 27; APC 5 vs 15; AANDC 3 vs 7; FFD 3 vs 9; KOPANO 2 vs 5; ACP 0 vs 2; ATM 0 vs 3; IFP 0 vs 13; PAC 0 vs 3; SDP 0 vs 2; SEDIMO 0 vs 34; UAT 0 vs 14. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 81 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.
