Contested Officer Detailed Results

Of the 3240 voters in this election, 188 cast ballots. MeekSTV was used to tabulate approval votes, explained here. Our election provider has an interactive page as well that you can view as well although we aren’t sure how long it will remain up.

The bar charts below show the vote counts for each candidate in each round.

Yellow — Votes carried over from the previous round.

Green — Votes received in this round.

Red — Votes transferred away in this round.

A candidate’s votes in a round is the sum of the yellow and green bars. Since the green and red bars represent votes being transferred, the sum of the green and red bars is the same.

The exhausted bar represents votes where the voter did not indicate a next preference and thus there were no candidates to transfer the vote to.
