At-Large District:

Turnout: 40 total voters
Verified Voters: 40 total verified voters
Election Format: Proportional representation. In proportional districts, voters will still vote for candidates, but all votes received by candidates of a party will be totaled up to be that party’s number of votes. That, as a percentage of the total number of votes, will be used for seat allocation. Independents will be treated as one collective party. Once the number of seats each party should receive is determined, the seats each party has won will go to the highest vote getters within that individual party.

Election Calculation:

• APA received 43.4% of the overall vote, while AFBA received 28.9%, and independent candidates collectively received 27.6% of the vote (rounded to nearest tenth).
• As a result of these total party votes, APA is entitled to 0.87 seats, while AFBA is entitled to 0.58 seats, and independent candidates collectively are entitled to 0.55 seats.
  • In seat allocation, once the solid numbers have been allocated, the highest decimal point is selected. This rounds the final seats being APA and AFBA both entitled to 1 seat.
    • As a a result, the independent candidates did not have enough votes to be entitled to any of the 2 seats.
• APA's entitlement to 1 seats means that the top candidate with the most votes in their party win. AFBA's entitlement to 1 seats means that the top candidate with the most votes in their party win.
