About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
special votes 368 · All 89 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 89 voting districts here (22 281 of 38 945). The IEC publishes 57.4%.
Note: party 0: the IEC's cross-ballot total 1861 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (1865); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: IEC TotalValidVotes 65318 differs from the sum of party rows 65314 by -4; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.
Note: the IEC's seat calculation lists 1 party row twice with identical figures; each party is counted once.
Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
