Requires the nightly
feature to be enabled
Under STV, a voter has a single vote that is initially allocated to their most preferred candidate. Votes are totalled and a quota (the number of votes required to win) derived. If a candidate achieves quota, the candidate is elected and any surplus vote is transferred to other candidates in proportion to the voters' stated preferences. If no candidate achieves quota, the bottom candidate is eliminated with votes being transferred to other candidates as determined by the voters' stated preferences. These elections, eliminations, and vote transfers continue in rounds until the correct number of candidates are elected.
