About these figures

Official IEC figures: how we add them up

special votes 2 112 · All 30 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 30 voting districts here (23 753 of 42 790). The IEC publishes 55.8%.

The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2016 election for the same municipality, both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.

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

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