About these figures
special votes 44 121 · All 1 786 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.
Note: IEC TotalValidVotes 2370988 differs from the sum of party rows 2372227 by 1239; we show per-ballot sums of party rows and do not publish the cross-ballot total.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.
