About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

Votes cast 3 865 · spoilt 67 · special votes 187 · 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 (3 896 of 9 066). The IEC publishes 43.0%.

Note: The IEC's total across ballots differs from the party's ward + PR + DC 40% votes for 39 parties (the IEC's total vs the ballots' sum): ANC 1 054 vs 3 009; ActionSA 852 vs 2 770; DA 759 vs 2 272; EFF 521 vs 1 566; SACP 200 vs 510; VF PLUS 80 vs 265; ACDP 62 vs 194; MKP 57 vs 164; RPP 54 vs 109; ATM 35 vs 97; PURPLE 27 vs 90; UCDP 23 vs 79; PA 22 vs 64; COPE 8 vs 14; AACUM 7 vs 12; AIC 6 vs 17; LABOUR 6 vs 17; APC 5 vs 9; AZAPO 5 vs 11; MAYIBUYE 3 vs 18; AEF 2 vs 7; FISA 2 vs 5; ACP 1 vs 4; SDP 1 vs 4; ACG 0 vs 1; AET 0 vs 11; ALJAMA 0 vs 1; ARC 0 vs 2; BBS 0 vs 4; CPM 0 vs 1; ECOFORUM 0 vs 1; IFP 0 vs 6; L.S.M 0 vs 15; Bophuthatswana Civil Movement 0 vs 39; RCF 0 vs 1; SAPA 0 vs 3; SLK26 0 vs 14; TSOGANG 0 vs 24; UAT 0 vs 10. We show each ballot's own votes.

Note: A party's total across ballots doesn't match its ballots: 88 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.
