About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
special votes 40 283 · All 1 723 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 1 723 voting districts here (909 902 of 1 715 460). The IEC publishes 53.6%.
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 16948 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (16955); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: IEC TotalValidVotes 2667274 differs from the sum of party rows 2667267 by -7; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.
Note: Greater Taung: party 0: the IEC's cross-ballot total 6629 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (6636); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: Greater Taung: IEC TotalValidVotes 143865 differs from the sum of party rows 143858 by -7; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.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.
