In the Netherlands, the threshold is also dependent on the election quotient applied to the list: If fewer than 19 seats are to be awarded, half of the number of votes cast for a list divided by the number of seats won; if it is nineteen or more, it is a quarter of the quotient. That means that if a list has won only one seat, more than half must have voted for a candidate for him or her to be elected. Otherwise, the first on the list is elected. If 20 seats are to be filled, it is sufficient for a candidate to win more than 1.25 percent to compete for the seats according to the individual votes.
