Why, it's incredible how massive Cincinnatus' transfers to Yelnoc are.

[Frodo]

The Irish would term Nathan and the JCP as "Transfer Toxic"

What's wrong with Nathan?

[minionofmidas]

The Irish would term Nathan and the JCP as "Transfer Toxic"

What's wrong with Nathan?

He doesn't attract any transfers.

At least not in this constellation.

[bgwah]

He's got quite a few 2nd preferences from Yelnoc voters. Of course that doesn't mean much if he's against him in the final round!

[Dr. Cynic]

There's nothing wrong with Nathan, but how could one expect to vote against the party they founded? Especially for someone who was so enthusiastic about it?

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

He's got quite a few 2nd preferences from Yelnoc voters. Of course that doesn't mean much if he's against him in the final round!

He's still losing tho, if he was winning on Yelnoc transfer than he would be less Transfer Toxic than Yelnoc would be Transfer Friendly. Of course that count was based on a count I did hours ago.

Even though Nathan leads the first count, it is much more difficult for him to be elected than it is for the other two candidates. Nathan, who is running at around 37% of the first-preference vote, needs either to get to around 46-7% or to win several more Cincinnatus second-preferences to become elected. But the electoral calculus will change dramatically if Cincinnatus pulls ahead of Yelnoc. The race could go down to the wire if that happens, since Yelnoc's second preferences are breaking 9-5 toward Cincinnatus, who trails Nathan by only one vote more than that margin.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

What happens if two candidates are tied for second place like 20-16-16. Who gets eliminated?

[Associate Justice PiT]

What happens if two candidates are tied for second place like 20-16-16. Who gets eliminated?

     I believe they are ranked by second preferences in that case.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

Who leads on the previous ballot

Followed by first preferences
Then second; of all voters.

[Napoleon]

Looking good for my NE buddies!

[homelycooking]

Cincinnatus now trails Nathan by one vote. With Yelnoc falling further behind in terms of first preferences, this race looks to be going down to the wire on the final day of voting.

[opebo]

Very exciting!  I feel good at the moment.
