About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 2 668 · spoilt 16 · special votes 314 · 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 (2 658 of 7 133). The IEC publishes 37.5%.

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 38 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 034 vs 3 021; EFF 638 vs 1 819; ActionSA 381 vs 1 072; DA 354 vs 1 079; VF PLUS 46 vs 151; MKP 36 vs 85; RPP 28 vs 41; ACDP 24 vs 57; SACP 23 vs 112; APC 21 vs 60; ATM 17 vs 40; MAYIBUYE 11 vs 25; LABOUR 6 vs 10; AACUM 3 vs 4; ACP 3 vs 4; ARONA 3 vs 5; COPE 3 vs 5; Bophuthatswana Civil Movement 3 vs 45; PURPLE 3 vs 18; AEF 2 vs 4; ECOFORUM 2 vs 4; FISA 2 vs 3; ACG 0 vs 2; AET 0 vs 6; AIC 0 vs 13; ARC 0 vs 4; AZAPO 0 vs 1; CPM 0 vs 1; ERM 0 vs 2; IFP 0 vs 5; PA 0 vs 2; RCF 0 vs 2; SAPA 0 vs 1; SDP 0 vs 1; SLK26 0 vs 7; TSOGANG 0 vs 7; UAT 0 vs 6; UCDP 0 vs 18. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 87 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: Rustenburg's DC 40% result.

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