About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 4 980 · spoilt 112 · special votes 70 · All 5 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 5 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 5 voting districts here (4 939 of 8 911). The IEC publishes 56.2%.
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 31 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): MKP 2 449 vs 7 505; ANC 1 441 vs 4 154; DA 262 vs 780; IFP 138 vs 394; IND 137 vs 359; ActionSA 136 vs 328; EFF 103 vs 283; MAYIBUYE 69 vs 187; AIC 45 vs 79; KZNI 20 vs 35; SACP 15 vs 40; PA 11 vs 13; APEMO 8 vs 10; VF PLUS 7 vs 28; A.B.C.D. 6 vs 9; AMC.ROY. 3 vs 14; NGG 3 vs 9; PAC 3 vs 5; TRUTH 3 vs 18; AFNA 2 vs 3; AZAPO 2 vs 3; MF 2 vs 8; ARU 1 vs 14; NFP 1 vs 5; ABC 0 vs 8; ACC 0 vs 72; ACDP 0 vs 11; ATM 0 vs 33; JEP 0 vs 1; SAF 0 vs 2; UM 0 vs 3.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 103 times in 5 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: Msunduzi's DC 40% result.
