     The current test says"fewest first preferences". Wording it this way makes it ensures that a tie results in a runoff, which means more election fun for everyone.

     You are right that it has been de facto law for a long time, but as Jas pointed out it may not have an actual basis in Atlasian law. This amendment makes sure that it does.

     I don't see ties as being common enough that breaking them with runoffs is a negative proposition, though it might be interesting if they were broken by a Senate vote.
