About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
special votes 0 · All 159 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 159 voting districts here (33 700 of 57 910). The IEC publishes 175.1%.
Note: the IEC's published turnout for this municipality is 175.06%; its own counts give 58.19% (PR ballots cast ÷ registered voters in its voting districts); we show the calculated figure.
Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
