About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
Votes cast 2 364 · spoilt 56 · special votes 501 · 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 (2 316 of 5 185). The IEC publishes 45.7%.
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 26 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 885 vs 2 737; SACP 710 vs 2 172; DA 185 vs 564; EFF 168 vs 525; Success African Movement 96 vs 325; URP 73 vs 162; BPSA 61 vs 126; BLM 27 vs 55; TRA 22 vs 72; TFSD 14 vs 18; LABOUR 13 vs 14; VF PLUS 13 vs 48; PAC 10 vs 18; MAYIBUYE 8 vs 29; MKP 7 vs 16; ATM 6 vs 24; UAT 5 vs 18; AZAPO 3 vs 10; IFP 2 vs 8; ACDP 0 vs 1; APC 0 vs 2; BOSA 0 vs 7; DBP 0 vs 1; LECOMA 0 vs 1; MMP 0 vs 1; OTM 0 vs 1. We show each ballot's own votes.
Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 58 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: Thabazimbi's DC 40% result.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
