Looks good. How do you take into account Preferntial Voting on that, which will be used in 3 or more races?

OOOHHH, I just love it!!!  Cheesy

So how is this going to work- will you be constantly updating the site, all weekend long?

You're missing a few candidates on your lists.  We still (unfortunately) have 57opinions running in 2A, Al hasn't withdrawn from 3B, and Josh22 is running in 4B.

Another (minor) problem with this is, it looks like it only takes first-choice votes into account, and might incorrectly be calling someone a winner.  In spite of that- great job!!!

It would seem to me that it'd be easy enough just to have the percentages add up to a number greater than 100.  The one with the highest percentage would be the winner.

EDIT: Or, another way would be just to take the votes for a certain candidate as a percentage of the total votes cast.

Yeah, I like it too.  It looks like a very official results page like you'd find on any news agency.

I think it would look better and more understandable if you left the second number of votes and percentage off unless the election did go into a runoff.  Just my personal opinion.

Exactly.  The second set of numbers shown should be the results of the runoff vote, if there is any- not the number of second preference votes.

Example:
A gets 5 votes, B gets 3 votes, C gets 2 votes.
C gets eliminated, those two voters put B as their second choice.  This results in a tie: A gets 5, B gets 5.

This would be displayed thus:

A- 5 (5)  50%(50%)  WINNER
B- 3 (5)  30%(50%)
C- 2 (0)  20%(0%)

Of course, A ends up winning the tie in this example, due to getting more first preference votes.

I hope Don does News Channel Atlasia or someone starts a Midterm election update thread with the votes. Scrolling through all the votes is annoying! Tongue
