[1] Jbrase
[2] Xahar
[3] Fuzzybigfoot
[4] realisticidealist

Someone's gotta deviate from the obvious.

I see how it is.

[RI]

I would like to congrate Fuzzy on his victory and look forward to serving with the three of you on the Pacific Council.

[RI]

Does that mean I won Oregon?

I'll have to make up a county map for the race.

[RI]

This is my interpretation of the results, projected out to a full electorate.



I am blue, Fuzzy is green, Jbrase is yellow, and Xahar is red. It's just a quick map; there wasn't too much thought put into it.

[RI]

Damn it, Jbrase, I want the entirety of the Bay Area!

Hey now, maybe if you had voted you may have won it

and don't feel bad, I strengthened your results in NM.

I'm not sure about some of those in NM. I can't see San Juan County voting for Xahar.

[RI]

I'm from Snohomish County, which is why I gave it to myself (part of the reason I gave Del Norte County, CA to me is because I was born there). You're in Bellingham, so I sort of gave Skagit to you since it's both closer to you and trending liberal as a county.

[RI]

Fuzzy, I think I'd lose Clark County Nevada before I lose the other upstate counties.

The only way I could see that happening is if Mineral County (which is more economically liberal) or Lincoln County/maybe White Pine (which has a large Mormon population) took issue with your libertarianism while Xahar won the Hispanic areas of Las Vegas and split the vote between Fuzzy, him, and myself, allowing you to benefit.

[RI]

We have more posts on this thread analyzing the results than for the actual election itself.

[RI]

I was born in Santa Clara County, which is also where I live, so I guess there's no additional bump for that.

I gave you Santa Clara.

For what it's worth, I thought you were in San Francisco for some reason. My bad. I can bump you up to 50% in Santa Clara if you want.

I just made it longer.

[RI]

Could someone post the actual results? I don't know exactly how a surplus is distributed in STP otherwise I'd do it myself.

EDIT: Ok, I'm going to give it a try:

Rd 1:

Fuzzybigfoot (JCP): 4
Jbrase (POP): 2
Realisticidealist (UDL): 2
Xahar (UDL): 1

Quota: 2.8, Fuzzybigfoot elected

Rd 2:

Jbrase: 2.5
Realisticidealist: 2.5
Xahar: 2

Now what? Do I eliminate Xahar?
