Final count and seat allocation (100%).

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.
