If two lists of candidates that qualify for the distribution of seats obtain an equally highest quotient in the order of the highest quotients, the allocation of seats between the two lists shall be decided by drawing lots.

Candidates shall be elected in the order indicated on the list unless at least a quarter of the voters who voted for an individual list of candidates cast preferential votes for individual candidates from the list. In such case, those candidates shall be elected who received the highest number of preferential votes in the order of the highest number of preferential votes, if the number of preferential votes for each candidate exceeds 10 percent of the total number of votes cast for the list. If, under this rule, not as many candidates are elected as there are seats that pertain to an individual list, the remaining seats shall be allocated to the candidates in the order of the candidates on the list.

If the last two candidates on the list of candidates who qualify for election obtain an equal number of preferential votes, the election between the two shall be decided by drawing lots.
