About these figures
Official IEC figures: how we add them up
Votes cast 17 919 966 · spoilt 239 237 · special votes 743 609 · All 19 734 voting districts in · the IEC marks the results complete
The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2004 election for the same country, both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.
Each party's seats are the sum of the two seat rows the IEC returns for it.
Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.
Map boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB) and the IEC.
