About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

special votes 0 · All 216 voting districts in · the IEC marks the results complete

In local elections the IEC adds votes across the ward, PR and district ballots, so we show valid votes per ballot instead of one "votes cast" total.

Turnout is calculated as PR ballots cast ÷ registered voters, from the IEC's results for the 216 voting districts here (198 181 of 341 665). The IEC publishes no turnout figure here.

Note: party 0: the IEC's cross-ballot total 7323 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (7330); we show each ballot's own votes.

Note: party 3: the IEC's cross-ballot total 810 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (819); we show each ballot's own votes.

Note: IEC TotalValidVotes 580235 differs from the sum of party rows 580219 by -16; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.

Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.

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