About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 3 065 · spoilt 71 · special votes 304 · All 3 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 3 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 3 voting districts here (3 076 of 5 566). The IEC publishes 55.3%.

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 33 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 373 vs 3 791; MKP 518 vs 1 641; DA 356 vs 1 168; EFF 181 vs 598; SACP 143 vs 480; ActionSA 121 vs 440; IFP 80 vs 243; BSCM 59 vs 131; ATM 30 vs 78; VF PLUS 25 vs 108; SEFM 23 vs 41; AIC 15 vs 38; PAC 13 vs 28; ACDP 11 vs 22; MAYIBUYE 11 vs 33; BOSA 6 vs 22; COMSA 6 vs 12; PA 5 vs 20; ACP 4 vs 9; SDP 4 vs 5; Elf-SA - Economic Liberators Forum South Africa 3 vs 4; AEF 2 vs 7; VAAL 2 vs 8; ACSA 1 vs 5; KYP 1 vs 3; AAA 0 vs 1; ALJAMA 0 vs 1; ARA 0 vs 2; COPE 0 vs 5; NFP 0 vs 2; TYM 0 vs 1; UAT 0 vs 32; VDM 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 80 times in 3 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: Lesedi's DC 40% result.

Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
