I counted the election with my own software (which noisily ignores the = entries) and got almost exactly the reported results, with a few very small deviations that I attribute to the = rankings. Interestingly (I guess) Kiss and Miller had almost equal approval counts (that is, they were each mentioned on very close to the same number of ballots). -- /Jonathan Lundell. ---- election-methods mailing list - see http://electorama.com/em for list info
