Method of counting the election result 

The mutual ranking order of candidates representing a party that is not in an electoral alliance or the mutual ranking order of candidates representing a joint list is determined by the number of personal votes cast for the candidates. In this order, the candidates are given a comparative index so that the first ranked candidate in each party or joint list gets the total number of votes cast for the said party or the said joint list as his or her comparative index, the second ranked candidate half of the number, the third ranked candidate one third of the number, the fourth candidate one fourth of the number and so forth.

The mutual ranking order of candidates representing parties that belong to an electoral alliance is, regardless of the party, determined by the number of votes cast for each candidate. In this order, the candidates are given a comparative index so that the first ranked candidate receives as his or her comparative index the total number of votes cast for the electoral alliance, the second candidate half of the number, the third candidate one third of the number, the fourth candidate one fourth of the number and so forth.

A candidate representing a constituency association that does not belong to a joint list has the number of votes cast for him or her as the comparative index.
