A supplement --
Each political party and independents as a group might be deemed to be
choices in a separate vote.
If any of them get a Droop Quota, then it would get at least 1 seat in the
legislative body.
The math only for the party (independents) involved might be used to
determine which specific persons are elected.
Party Votes (final) x Votes for district winner(s) (final)
---------------------------------------------
Sum of Votes for district winner(s)
A simpler, but less exact, method would be to just use the number votes (1,
2, etc.) and YES/NO.
Getting P.R. into the U.S.A. Congress is a mere matter of possible life or
death for humans on Mother Earth --- to get rid of the ultra-dangerous
monarchial/ oligarchial leaderships of BOTH the D's and R's in the Congress
-- due to gerrymanders (with about 97 percent one party *safe* seats in the
U.S.A. House of Reps) and plurality winner primary nominations of special
interest gang and plurality winners in general elections.
