About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
special votes 37 671 · All 3 111 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 3 111 voting districts here (1 282 837 of 2 556 128). The IEC publishes 50.3%.
The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2011 election for the same province, both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.
Note: party 0: the IEC's cross-ballot total 30249 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (30255); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: IEC TotalValidVotes 3785291 differs from the sum of party rows 3785285 by -6; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.
Note: Makhado: party 0: the IEC's cross-ballot total 1137 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (1140); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: New Municipality: party 0: the IEC's cross-ballot total 1643 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (1646); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: Makhado: IEC TotalValidVotes 247265 differs from the sum of party rows 247262 by -3; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.
Note: New Municipality: IEC TotalValidVotes 211159 differs from the sum of party rows 211156 by -3; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.
