About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 1 680 · spoilt 176 · special votes 288 · All 1 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 1 voting district; 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 1 voting district here (1 685 of 3 355). The IEC publishes 46.3%.
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 23 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 732 vs 2 103; VF PLUS 412 vs 1 309; ANC 227 vs 708; EFF 55 vs 210; ActionSA 31 vs 114; SACP 17 vs 42; PA 12 vs 41; ACP 4 vs 12; MKP 4 vs 16; ATM 2 vs 9; LABOUR 2 vs 3; UCDP 2 vs 3; ACT 1 vs 2; IRASA 1 vs 2; MAYIBUYE 1 vs 5; PAC 1 vs 7; ACDP 0 vs 19; ACRA 0 vs 1; ASM 0 vs 1; IFP 0 vs 5; MSDM 0 vs 1; Baagi 0 vs 3; UAT 0 vs 19. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: the IEC's published turnout for this ward is 46.25%; its own counts give 50.22% (PR ballots cast ÷ registered voters in its voting districts); we show the calculated figure.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 21 times in 1 voting district. 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: Matlosana's DC 40% result.
