METHODOLOGY
As the first step of the analysis, the researcher identified the total number of polling divisions
separately. After that, each polling division’s votes have been categorized into 4 main
categories as floating votes, new votes, traditional votes (based on the party) & minority votes
using a created formula.
After the categorization; assumptions for each polling division were made according to the
current situation of the division & have been proven using special political, economic & social
scenarios happened in the past; throughout a specific period of time in the same division.
Using the proven assumptions & the obtained votes’ categorization, the number of votes for
each party and the preferences of each candidate have been calculated polling division wise.
Again the obtained result has been proven using a sample method.
After the sample results obtained, both the calculated results & the results obtained through the
sample method were compared. If there was any mismatch between both results, the final result
has been taken after mixing the both results.

3. Number of votes taken by all the parties and Independent groups which have taken less than
1/20 votes from total valid votes :- 14,838

4. Calculating the relevant votes


Number of votes taken by all the parties and Independent groups which have taken less than

to calculate the “Relevant Votes”
See that calculation below:
I. Total valid votes = 1,213,649
II. Figure in 3 = 14,838
III. Relevant Votes = 1,198,811

5. Calculating the constructive figure


I. This answer can be taken by dividing the “Relevant Votes” (figure in 4. Ⅲ.) from the
figure coming after, deducting one from the number of parliament members should get
elected to the electoral district.

II. The figure coming after, deducting one from the :- 18


number of parliament members should get
elected to the electoral district (19 – 1)

III. Figure comes from 4. Ⅲ.devided by 5.Ⅱ. :- 66,600.61

6. According to that the “Constructive Figure” :- 66,601

Calculating the elected Parliament members

2. 1/20 from the total valid votes :- 63,186
3. Number of votes taken by all the parties and Independent groups which have taken less than
1/20 votes from total valid votes :- 26,803

4. Calculating the relevant votes


Number of votes taken by all the parties and Independent groups which have taken less than
1/20 votes from total valid votes (figure in 3) should be deducted from total valid votes in order
to calculate the “Relevant Votes”
See that calculation below:
I. Total valid votes = 1,263,723
II. Figure in 3 = 26,803
III. Relevant Votes = 1,236,920

5. Calculating the constructive figure


I. This answer can be taken by dividing the “Relevant Votes” (figure in 4. Ⅲ.) from the
figure coming after, deducting one from the number of parliament members should get
elected to the electoral district.

II. The figure coming after, deducting one from the :- 17


number of parliament members should get
elected to the electoral district (18 – 1)

III. Figure comes from 4. Ⅲ.devided by 5.Ⅱ. :- 72,760

6. According to that the “Constructive Figure” :- 72,760

II. Figure in 3 = 51,311
III. Relevant Votes = 669,139

5. Calculating the constructive figure


I. This answer can be taken by dividing the “Relevant Votes” (figure in 4. Ⅲ.) from the
figure coming after, deducting one from the number of parliament members should get
elected to the electoral district.

II. The figure coming after, deducting one from the :- 9


number of parliament members should get
elected to the electoral district ( 10 – 1)

III. Figure comes from 4. Ⅲ.devided by 5.Ⅱ. :- 74,348.77

II. The figure coming after, deducting one from the :- 8


number of parliament members should get
