Election STV Iteration Report
David Friggens made this Official Information request to Whanganui District Council
The request was successful.
From: David Friggens
Dear Whanganui District Council,
I see you have a results summary for the recent elections online, including for the Whanganui District Health Board [1]. I couldn't find an STV iteration report for the DHB election on the website though. Could you please make that available to me, by return email (if quicker) and/or through your website. Specifically, the information I would like in the report is the quota, non-transferable votes and each candidate's votes, for every iteration of the count.
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 or RTF as most STV councils (like Palmerston North [3]) have done.
Yours faithfully,
David Friggens

Kia ora Paul,
Thank you for the file, which is more detailed than the online results. Unfortunately, I'm looking for a little more detail.
This file has the quota and number of votes for each candidate at the iteration they were elected or excluded. What I would like please is the quota, number of non-transferable votes and votes for each candidate, for each of the 25 iterations.
Ngā mihi
David
