All votes are paper ballots completed and counted manually.

A ballot need only rank the Qu candidate to be deemed valid; the quota is not recalculated to take account of exhausted ballots, which means candidates may be elected without reaching the quota.

There were 78 candidates on the ballot paper, counting took two weeks, and many independents were elected.

The change was justified on the basis that the ballots were long and unwieldy and many votes were wasted when ballots were exhausted.

Both systems require voters to rank several, or all, of the candidates on the ballot, reducing or eliminating the possibility of exhausted votes.

Casual vacancies are filled by the countback method, which involves recounting the original ballots to elect one of the candidates who stood but failed to be elected in the last election.
