Slightly easier maybe, but the nature of any STV method implies that it has a level of complexity to it. I don’t think that should really be a focus when it comes to choosing a voting method.
The reason it’s harder to see a lead someone might have in votes is the exact reason we are using Meek STV in the first place. It’s much more efficient at making every vote count, meaning that it virtually eliminates strategic voting. I think the effectiveness of a given voting method is much more crucial than how it might be displayed.
That being said, we will definitely try to do more in terms of visualising the vote for the next election. Ideally the vote count can just be seen on the snapshot proposal pages.
The difference in the result could be minor, and it could technically change an outcome. They don’t need to be mutually exclusive.
From the looks of things, you might have been using much older code. None of the elected candidates should be undefined.
The term 1 results from the new code are exactly the same as the previous code, the results for that election can be found here.
