the Aaron surplus was distributed to Marie Deary and 7/8 vote was distributed
to Nile ElWardani. In the third round, Maria Armoudian had the fewest votes
with 0, so was eliminated with no transfers. In the fourth round Nile
ElWardani had the fewest votes at 3-7/8, so was eliminated. In the fifth
round, 3 of Nile's votes transferred to Marie Deary, putting her over threshold
