Seat Distribution Based on June 30 Preliminary Results

Combining the numbers from the General Election Commission in two previous posts (FPTP and PR), we would arrive at the following seat distribution (relying on GEC figures but excluding run-off seats):

Proportional representation:

  • DP 10 seats
  • MPP 9
  • MPRP 7
  • CWGP 2

First-past-the-post:

  • DP 21 seats
  • MPP 17
  • MPRP 4
  • Independent 3

Yielding a total of:

  • DP 31 seats
  • MPP 26
  • MPRP 11
  • Independents 3
  • CWGP 2

Recall that this totals 73 because of the three run-offs.

Numerically possible coalitions to yield a 39 seat majority:

  • DP + MPP = 57 seats
  • DP + MPRP = 42 seats
  • MPP + MPRP = 37 seats [this would only be a 39 seat majority if the two leading MPP candidates win their run-off]

Independents and CWGP could be added to the above coalitions, of course.
