Line 16:

* A legislature is elected by a modified version of [[STV]], using the following steps:

# The iteration number I is set to 1. (Higher iteration numbers mean lower quotas. The process will be run from scratch with an increasing iteration number until a full slate of candidates reaches the quota)

# The quota Q is set ~~to the [[Droop Quota]]; that is,~~ to the rational number (V+1)/(S+I), where V is valid votes and S is seats.

# The quota Q is set to the rational number (V+1)/(S+I), where V is valid votes and S is seats. (For the first iteration, this is a form of the [[Droop Quota]].)

# Delegated votes first count full-weight for their chosen candidate. Once that candidate is elected or eliminated, a vote is divided equally among all non-disapproved, non-eliminated members of the top party remaining on that ballot with any such members.

# Undelegated votes are divided equally among all approved, non-eliminated candidates on that ballot.
