About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
special votes 0 · All 1 186 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 1 186 voting districts here (622 124 of 1 318 408). The IEC publishes 141.7%.
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 province, both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.
Note: party 7: the IEC's cross-ballot total 1392337 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (1392250); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: party 52: the IEC's cross-ballot total 227063 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (227050); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: Golden Gate Highlands NP DMA: party 7: the IEC's cross-ballot total 191 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (104); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: Golden Gate Highlands NP DMA: party 52: the IEC's cross-ballot total 15 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (2); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: the IEC's published turnout for this province is 141.73%; its own counts give 47.19% (PR ballots cast ÷ registered voters in its voting districts); we show the calculated figure.
Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.
