Line 21:
The votes are redistributed just as if the safe candidate was a candidate in a one seat election that was eliminated but with the add-on that any ballot that gave a vote to this newly elected candidate has the weight of their ballot divided by 0.5 in the recounting (the weight of the ballot is equal to how much 1 vote from that ballot is worth, each ballot starts with a weight of one).
the candidate to receive the least amount of votes is than eliminated (their voters ballots weight is not changed) and their votes are redistributed as normal.
The election continues until all seats are filled or the number of candidates remaining/safe are equal to that of the total number of seats.
If the case of a tie in which no candidate can be chosen to be eliminated then the tied candidates enter their own tiebreaker in which the ballots are looked at to see which candidate was scored higher the least compared to the other candidates in the tie breaker, if this ties then the double tied candidates enter a 2nd tie breaker in which a separated scored voting system is used to find a looser, if this ties then the tripled tied candidates are all eliminated.
