DHB Election STV Iteration Reports

David Friggens made this Official Information request to Auckland Council

The request was successful.

From: David Friggens

Dear Auckland Council,

I see you have a results summary for the recent Auckland, Counties Manukau and Waitemata DHB elections online [1]. I couldn't find an STV iteration report on the website though. Could you please make that available to me, by return email (if quicker) and/or through your website.

If different formats are available, I personally would prefer a machine-readable format - XML (like Kapiti Coast [2]) or CSV - but if publishing on the website it would be useful also to have a human-readable PDF as most STV councils (like Palmerston North [3]) have done.

Yours faithfully,
David Friggens

Good morning David,

I have been advised that all the information you are seeking is at the very bottom of the link you have provided to the councils website.

Unfortunately we do not hold the information in the format you have requested.

Kind Regards,
Grace

Kia ora Grace,

At the bottom of the page I linked are three tables that list each candidate along with the quota, votes and iteration when they were elected or excluded.

What I am after is an "iteration report" or "commentary" that gives - for every iteration - the quota, non-transferable votes and votes for each candidate. Unless I have missed something, this information does not appear to be on, or linked from, this page.

Yours sincerely,
David Friggens
