University Council elections closed today. Chris Wong and Lavinia Emmett-Grey won the two undergraduate spots. Xu Ting won the post-grad position.

Full details of the count and final margins are avaliable here.

In summary, Chris Wong received 431 primaries, with Lavinia on 149 and Paris Dean on 119. Tomas Macura was some way behind on 48 votes.

Chris Wong broke quota by some 200 votes, and so his votes flowed on to Lavinia (82 votes), Paris (54 votes) and Tomas (45 votes). This brought Lavinia to 231 votes, and Paris to 172. Tomas was eliminated.

The next round of redistribution saw 33 of Tomas’ votes flow to Lavinia, and 36 to Paris, bringing their totals to 264 and 209 respectively. Reaching the 250 quota figure first, Lavinia was elected to the remaining spot.

The post-graduate count only took 2 rounds, with only 156 valid ballots being cast. Quota was 79 votes, which none of the candidates reached. Xu Ting had 74 primaries, David Coluccio had 44, and Morteza Mohammahzhaheri has 38. Morteza was thus eliminated, and the ballots redistributed (15 to Xu Ting, 14 to David). Xu Ting was elected with 89 votes, David Collucio eliminated on 58 votes.
