I'm not quite awake yet...	by Kickstart	2006-01-24 09:18:07
I think I know what you are driving at	by emlaabs	2006-01-24 09:38:45
but I might be completely off. number of seats/total population = worth of national vote since you want the worth of national vote to equal 1, you need to multiply it by a factor to get it to that point. worth of national vote * factor = 1 so factor = 1 / (number of seats / total population ) = total population / number of seats Now, as I understand it, you want to know the weighting based on the seats and population of each province vs. the country as a whole. This is a ratio. number of seats in province/province population = worth of provincal vote ratio of provincal vote worth vs. national worth = worth of provincal vote/worth of national vote = (worth of provincal vote * factor) / (worth of national vote * factor) = (worth of provincal vote * factor) / 1 = worth of provincal vote * (total population / number of seats) = (number of seats in province/province population) * (total population / number of seats) Does that make sense?
