Quotient is the number of votes the party needs per seat (valid votes ÷ seats); the seat goes to its candidate with the most votes. Cutoff is the lowest vote total among those elected (the entry threshold for the council), and it is usually much lower than the quotient. Top non-elected is the highest vote total among those not elected, and it can be higher than the cutoff, because the seat belongs to the party before it belongs to the candidate. Learn about the cutoff and the quotient in the tutorial.

NotesHow the city's votes are added up.

Results added up across all of the city's electoral zones, with the percentage of valid votes. For city councillor, valid votes include the party-list vote (when the voter types only the party number), so they do not match the sum of the candidates. Municipal elections from 1996 to 2024; there is no data by municipality before 1994.
