Sharing of congress seats among parties
The number of the elected congress members of each party is announced after the election review has ended, that is on 27th. The way the congress seats are distributed is like this:
Let's say a country can elect 40 congressmen. That means a party needs to get at least 100 / 40 = 2.5% of the total votes in order to elect at least 1 congressman. If the division of the percentage of a party by the 2.5% returns a decimal number, the integer part only is considered. To be precise:
- Party A with 26.74% : 26.74 / 2.5 = 10.696, which means 10 congressmen
- Party B with 22.28% : 22.28 / 2.5 = 8.912, which means 8 congressmen
- Party C with 17.55% : 17.55 / 2.5 = 7.02, which means 7 congressmen
- Party D with 16.71% : 16.71 / 2.5 = 6.684, which means 6 congressmen
- Party E with 16.71% : 16.71 / 2.5 = 6.684, which means 6 congressmen
But 10 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 6 = 37, so that means there are 3 congress seats left. Those 3 seats are given to the parties which are closer to the next integer, in this case party B, A and D respectively.
In case of ties, such as with the parties D and E, the party that is selected to receive the additional congress seat is the party with the most members.
