About the results
Electoral quota
The number of seats a party receives is determined by the so-called electoral quota. This is the number of valid votes cast, divided by the 35 seats in the municipal council. Each party receives one seat for every time it has reached the electoral quota.
Preference votes
The members who enter the municipal council are determined based on preference votes. The order of the candidate list generally determines who enters the council. With sufficient preference votes, a candidate can still be elected to the council.
