Counting[edit | edit source]

Votes were counted using the Condorcet system, where each candidate was compared head-to-head. The candidate that beat all others head-to-head is known as the 'Condorcet winner' automatically wins, but if no candidate achieves this, then a series of tiebreakers was undertaken:

  • Candidate with most wins
  • Winner of a single transferable vote or head-to-head
  • Most primary votes, secondary votes, and so on
