About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 2 694 · spoilt 33 · special votes 271 · 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 (2 700 of 5 555). The IEC publishes 48.6%.
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 21 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): DA 1 478 vs 4 260; ANC 355 vs 1 125; PA 203 vs 624; MKP 168 vs 506; SACP 136 vs 378; EFF 110 vs 339; VF PLUS 46 vs 171; PMC 40 vs 117; GOOD 29 vs 88; ATM 25 vs 69; CCC 21 vs 64; AIC 19 vs 35; ACDP 10 vs 32; DNCA 6 vs 15; PAC 5 vs 9; MAYIBUYE 4 vs 11; PDM 3 vs 10; CAPEXIT 2 vs 5; A.C.C. 1 vs 4; ARA 0 vs 6; TRUTH 0 vs 3. We show each ballot's own votes.
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: Stellenbosch's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
