Chamber seat figures

edit

@Yilku1: Many thanks for expanding this article series. For this article, the seat figures for the Chamber are a bit odd.

From my count of the elected members listed in the source, the Colorados have 70 and the Nationalists/Civic Nationalists 51 (based on where the two ran, I calculate the split to be 34/17), a total of 121.

However, this is two short of the 123 total. Also, there are some discrepancies within the source:

  • The number of members listed for some departments does not match the seat division:
    • Montevideo has 35 listed (34 seats)
    • Rocha has three listed (4)
    • Artigas has two listed (3)
    • Tacuarembo has four listed (5)
  • All 10 members listed as elected in Canelones are from the PC despite the Civic Nationlists winning the most votes there.
  • The seat figures in Tacuarembo seem to be divided 50/50 between the parties

Where did you get the 67/56 split from? Cheers, Number 57 21:54, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

I had problems with this article too, I got the seats from the Spanish Wikipedia. I think the best thing is to leave it blank. Yilku1 (talk) 22:01, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Sounds like a sensible solution. I also had a query about how to present the United List results at Talk:1912 Uruguayan Senate election. Cheers, Number 57 22:10, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
