Two questions:
how does this take into account Article 9, which reads:
" After elections to l'Etats, each party will receive
20 numbers, which will be produced by dividing the
number of votes the party received by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20. The 20
highest numbers will be referred to as high quotients. In
case the 20th highest number has the same value as the
21th highest number all numbers with the same value will
not be considered high quotients. This will result in vacant
seats in the assembly. Each party will receive a number of
seats, equal to the number of high quotients it received.
Each party may divide its seats amongst Cézembrian
citizens as it sees fit. If a member dies or resigns or is
impeached by a motion receiving a 2/3rds vote of the
L'Etats, the seats shall return to the party that assigned
the seats."
suggesting that seats after the elections are NOT awarded to individual candidates but to parties and also that these parties can assign seats as they see fit?
Also, why would articles 14 or 15 apply here, since they refer to sénéchal elections?
