Definitive Results

@Number 57: I was working on the french page and intended to post there when finished : The document of the constitutional Court first show the Ceni Results, then on page 48 the definitive results [1], which are slightly different in term of votes for a few parties. I just finished updating the french article with them [2]. Do note the slight inconsistency of votes I detailled in the total. Cordially.--Aréat (talk) 12:12, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Aréat: Thanks – I will correct my changes (which were based on the first table...). Cheers, Number 5 7 12:53, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. I updated the presidential one. ;)--Aréat (talk) 13:15, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Aréat: I've finished. However, the final set of results have some odd inconsistencies. The party totals are 4,768,615, but the total valid votes is given as 4,768,558. Even more strangely, the sum of the valid and invalid votes given on page 48 (261,071 + 4,768,558) is 5,029,629, not the same as the total number of voters (5,029,702)...

Yeah, as mentioned above. I ended up making an explanatory note on the french version. Luckily it's just a few dozen of votes, so the percentages aren't affected anyways.--Aréat (talk) 13:24, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
