Counting Votes (multi-seat election) 

Mohamed Ahmed is defeated, so votes cast for him are distributed to the next choice on each ballot.  This includes the proportion of votes previously redistributed from Bill Jones’ surplus.  For simplicity, we’ll assume nobody who ranked Mohamed Ahmed as their first choice ranked Bill Jones as their second choice.

Anita Sanchez reached the threshold of 3334 votes and is elected. Both seats have been filled, so the vote count is completed.
