Numbers of votes cast for candidate lists.
In restricted proportional elections all the votes received by each list shall be counted to give the total number of votes for each list.
The following procedure shall be used to determine how many candidates have been elected from each list:
1.The number of votes cast for each list shall be divided by 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. The quotients are then recorded for each list.
2.The list with the highest resulting figure receives the first representative. That quotient is then eliminated. The list that now has the highest resulting figure receives the second representative. This process shall continue until as many representatives as are to be elected have been allocated.
3.In the event that there are too few names on a list when representatives are selected as provided for in point 2, this list shall be disregarded in further selection.
4.If two or more quotients being considered under point 2 are equal, lots shall be drawn to determine their order.
