2011 SE (Seat Equalized)




SE = Share of Electoral-Vote is designed to be as close to the share of Commons seats as possible. Note that I allow myself a 30EV variance in order to deal with the winner-take-all situation, and, I allow myself a variance of up to 100EV when it comes to "Quebec Unique Parties" like the Bloc. Also note that Green is NDP unless otherwise noted.

Use DRA for cities. Canada has a high variance in riding size, 25%, AND allows for special exceptions in the case of anything really. I interpret that, applied to the US, as counties in rural areas, and DRA in urban areas.

What would be the EQ for New York state? And how many people live east of NYC? Could you fit a full district in there? If someone can work that out for me, I could begin on NYC myself.

I've spent the last hour just trying to get the new york map to open. I can not. I can't even get Texas to open. I'll have to do a smaller state.

K. Forget about DRA. I cant open NY, Texas, Illi, Mich, NJ... I was able to open Iowa, just barely.

I'll be doing NY on a county level. I'll have to figure out NYC later.

No offence, but this sticking to county lines as though they were religions, makes me wonder if you guys understand the Canadian redistricting process.

I don't see anything in the UK that would be rejected in Canada.

One thing Canada would never do is separate the Hopi and Navajo.

it should, but it'd also not be counted as normal seats. IE it'd be additional.

N/279 was created at a time when we had 282 seats.

279 for the provinces, and 3, 1 each, for the territories.

So PR would be "above and beyond" the 435.

The "problem" is that even when we've had Territories that "earn" more than 1 seat, we don't give it to them, legally. The numbers have been assigned in the past.

I will do some research and get back to you.

According to my research, PR should be given a number of members equal to what it would "deserve" as that's what we did with the NWT in 1904

The Elections Act allows for a 25% variance and encourages it at times like this.
