Alþingiskosningar 1999 31 with votes less than two thirds of the current allocation quota. Article 112 decides the distribution of the remaining seats. They shall be distributed to national political organizations which have already had a seat allocated according to Article 111. The procedure is as follows: 1. The total number of votes received by each national political organization is divided by a number higher by i, 2, 3, etc. than the number of seats it has received according to Article 111. 2. The fírst seat then goes to the national political organization with the highest results, the second to the one with the highest remaining results. and so on. Article 113 provides for the allocation of the seats distributed according to Article 112. Candidate lists qualify for allocation ifthey have received not less than one third of the original allocation quota. Seats cannot be allocated to a list in a constituency which already has its full number of seats allocated. The allocation quotas shall be recalculated, comprising only the votes and seats of lists that have not received their full number of seats. For further allocation of seats a new vote index is calculated by subtracting the new allocation quotas multiplied by the number of seats already received from the total number of votes received by the list. When a list receives a seat according to this article the vote index is recalculated by subtracting the allocation quota from the previous vote index. Allocation quotas and vote indices shall be recalculated as soon as a national political organization has received its full number of seats. The allocation of seats according to this article takes place in three stages. A seat is allocated to the list with the highest allocation ratio, i.e. vote index as percentage of allocation quota, of the Iists remaining for consideration. Allocation shall be confined to each stage as long as possible, and if necessary the allocation quota shall be recalculated before moving to the next stage. 1 st stage: The first seats are allocated to lists that received at least four fifths ofthe allocation quota. This stage closes when no such lists remain, the allocation quota and vote indexes having been recalculated if necessary as described above. 2nd stage: Now one seat shall be allocated in constituencies where none was allocated in the lst stage, if possible. However, a list with less than 7% of the votes cannot be considered in the 2nd stage. 3rd stage: The remaining seats are now allocated. Allocation of seats in the Althingi is shown step by step in Tables 5-9. The Liberal Party had 3,460 votes per seat, The Alliance 2,610 votes, the Independence Party 2,597 votes, the Progressive Party 2,53 5 votes, and, finally, the The Left- Green Movement 2,519 votes per seat. Full equality between the political organizations was reached, which was also the case in the 1991 and 1995 general elections. Summary 17showsthenumberofseatsineachconstituency allocated to each political organization. based on constituency and national results. 9. Changes in candidate lists The voter can change the order of the candidates on the list he or she votes for by either re-numbering the candidates or by striking out names. The first seat goes to the candidate with the highest number of votes for the first seat, the second seat goes to the candidate with the highest number of votes for the first and second seats, and so on. Changes in the candidate lists had no effect on the order of the candidates in the elections. 10. Elected Members of the Althingi Members of the Althingi elected in the general elections of 8 May 1999 are listed in Table 10. Alternate members elected for each political organization are also listed. Three members of the Althingi elected in 1995, including President Ólafur Ragnar Grímsson, who was elected President of Iceland in 1996, had resigned during the previous term and were permanently replaced by alternate members. Five members of the outgoing Althingi did not stand for election while four other members standing for election were so low on their candidate lists that they were obviously not aiming at re-election. Forty-eight former members were re- elected and six lost their seats. Fifteen members elected in 1999 had not been elected in 1995. Two of these had been elected earlier as members while among the remaining 16 new members of the Althingi seven had taken seats as alternate members before the 1999 elections. Amongthe re-elected members, one had changed political organization, besides the members electied now forthe new parties, The Alliance and The Left-Green Movement. Only two members were elected in constituencies where they were not domiciled. Summary 18 sho ws the number of men and women elected in general elections 1874-1999. The oldest member elected in 1999 was 69 years old on election day, while the youngest one was 33 years old. The mean age of members of the Althingi was 49.9 years on election day. Among the members elected one was elected for the fírst time in 1974 and he has served the longest time, a total of 24.9 years. The 48 members who had previously been elected to the Althingi had on the average served 8.9 years.
