About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 1 386 · spoilt 22 · special votes 9 · 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 (1 378 of 2 296). The IEC publishes 60.5%.
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 29 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 618 vs 1 907; DA 251 vs 775; SDP 219 vs 632; MKP 115 vs 312; VF PLUS 40 vs 121; EFF 38 vs 121; AIC 34 vs 48; HOPE 15 vs 39; AEM 10 vs 23; ActionSA 7 vs 25; SACP 4 vs 11; INGUBO 3 vs 11; MHRF 3 vs 7; AST. 2 vs 4; ATM 2 vs 6; MAYIBUYE 2 vs 7; LABOUR 1 vs 2; ACDP 0 vs 1; ADP 0 vs 5; AIPO 0 vs 3; ASCO 0 vs 1; BPSA 0 vs 1; H.U.C.D 0 vs 1; IFP 0 vs 1; OLH 0 vs 1; PA 0 vs 2; SPP 0 vs 3; SUN 0 vs 1; UAT 0 vs 13. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 61 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: Steve Tshwete's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
