About these figures

Official IEC figures: how we add them up

special votes 488 · All 41 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 41 voting districts here (15 262 of 25 832). The IEC publishes 59.1%.

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

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