About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

special votes 0 · All 18 872 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 18 872 voting districts here (10 085 400 of 21 054 954). The IEC publishes 127.9%.

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 country, both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.
