About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

special votes 0 · All 14 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 14 voting districts here (7 978 of 13 334). The IEC publishes 179.5%.

The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2000 election for the same municipality, both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.

Note: the IEC's published turnout for this municipality is 179.47%; its own counts give 59.83% (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.
