About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

special votes 0 · All 2 172 voting districts in · the IEC marks the results complete

In local elections the IEC adds votes across the ward, PR and district ballots, so we show valid votes per ballot instead of one "votes cast" total.

Turnout is calculated as PR ballots cast ÷ registered voters, from the IEC's results for the 2 172 voting districts here (2 015 420 of 4 785 955). The IEC publishes 91.5%.

The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2000 election for the same province, both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.

Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 5 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 2 690 998 vs 2 690 006; DA 1 136 759 vs 1 136 585; VF PLUS 79 136 vs 79 114; Independent 31 146 vs 31 150; ID 58 039 vs 58 032. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: IEC TotalValidVotes 4307976 differs from the sum of party rows 4307972 by -4; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.

Note: the IEC's published turnout for this province is 91.5%; its own counts give 42.11% (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: 6 times in 3 municipalitys. 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 municipality's own page lists the IEC's figures.

Note: Westonaria: IEC TotalValidVotes 51467 differs from the sum of party rows 51464 by -3; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.

Note: City of Johannesburg: IEC TotalValidVotes 1384327 differs from the sum of party rows 1384326 by -1; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.

Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.
