The Directorate reports two different measures: the share of eligible voters who cast an accepted county ballot, and the share whose vote was approved. They are not the same and are never mixed.

Explore the seat allocation
County council seats use the modified Sainte-Laguë method: each list’s votes are divided by 1.4, 3, 5, 7 … and seats go to the highest quotients. A tied quotient goes to the list with more votes, then to an official lot draw. The rule at the Directorate of Elections (Norwegian) ↗
Check: allocating the official votes gives exactly the official seats.
