About these figures

Notes on the IEC's figures for this page

special votes 334 · 13 of 380 voting districts in (the IEC's voting-district results so far, out of its list of voting districts for this election)

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 13 voting districts with results so far here (2 316 of 4 120). The IEC publishes 56.3%.
