Zero In: December Election Tracker

[Bacon King]

64 voters, quota 11 (last voter: wifikitten)

Round 1

Lief: 15
Cris: 13
Polnut: 11
BK: 9
Max: 6
JCL: 4
SWE: 3
Spiral: 2
exhausted 1

Lief, Cris, Polnut elected.

Lief overflow redistributed:

Lief: 11
Cris: 13
Polnut: 11
BK: 11²/₁₅
Max: 6
SWE: 4¹³/₁₅
JCL: 4
Spiral: 2
exhausted 1

Bacon King elected! Cris overflow distributed:

Lief: 11
Cris: 11
Polnut: 11
BK: 11²/₁₅
Max: 6²/₁₃
JCL: 5¹¹/₁₃
SWE: 4¹³/₁₅
Spiral: 2
exhausted 1

Now it's time to distribute my overflow and then eliminate Spiral (one vote to Max, one vote to JCL) but I'm not messing with those crazy fractions. Fifth seat is neck and neck between Max and JCL.

I think quota is 12, but besides that, very interesting.

64 divided by 6, rounded down = 10; 10+1=11

80 voters, quota = 14 (last voter: Superique)

If I win and Polnut loses I will resign so Polnut can be appointed to fill my seat. He deserves a win more than me

That would be a spécial élection not an appointment.

[quote author=Proportional Representation Act, Section 3, Clause 7]Should a candidate or candidates be certified victorious in an at-large STV election and concede the seat prior to the date on which they are to swear-in:
1. If they are a member of a major party, that party's chairman will have until the swearing-in date OR until five days after the candidate's concession (whichever time is later) to appoint a replacement. For the appointment to be valid, the chair must allow a minimum of 24 hours for nominations for the seat, followed by a party-wide vote to choose the replacement that shall last at least 48 hours.

I just double checked my preliminary count and my only error was that I missed a voter who first preferenced me. This increases my vote total by 1 in all counts but doesn't change anything except that I'm elected a round earlier
