About these figures
Notes on the IEC's figures for this page
special votes 71 315 · All 1 744 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 1 744 voting districts here (1 073 679 of 1 919 216). The IEC publishes 56.2%.
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 province, both from the IEC's counts, with no votes re-allocated between boundaries.
Note: party 0: the IEC's cross-ballot total 13943 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (13945); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: IEC TotalValidVotes 3168927 differs from the sum of party rows 3168925 by -2; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.
Note: Thembisile Hani: party 0: the IEC's cross-ballot total 2706 differs from its ward + PR + DC 40% votes (2708); we show each ballot's own votes.
Note: Thembisile Hani: IEC TotalValidVotes 250178 differs from the sum of party rows 250176 by -2; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.
Percentages are calculated from the IEC's vote counts. Official results: results.elections.org.za.
