About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
special votes 402 322 · All 22 612 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 22 612 voting districts here (15 189 423 of 26 333 353). The IEC publishes 57.9%.
The change beside the headline is the difference between the leading party's share here and its share in the 2011 election for the same country, both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.
