Article 16
 

Seats that have not been distributed in constituencies under the preceding Article shall be distributed at the level of the municipality on the basis of the total number of votes cast for lists having the same name submitted in two or more constituencies.


For the purpose of distributing seats, it shall first be determined how many seats would be allocated to lists having the same name proportionate to the number of votes received in all constituencies. This shall be determined on the basis of the order of the highest quotients, which shall be calculated by dividing the total number of votes obtained by the lists having the same name in all constituencies by all numbers from one to the total number of seats.


In the distribution of seats on the level of the municipality, the lists having the same name referred to in the preceding paragraph shall be allocated a number of seats equal to the difference between the number of seats they would have received under the preceding paragraph and the number of seats they have received under the preceding Article in constituencies.
