The order of election with PR-STV shouldn't be used to determine VP,
all seats are equal.

However, I think your idea to run condorcet after the PR-STV election
is a good idea.

I would change it to:

- ranked ballots
- PR-STV elects the council
- Excluding non-elected candidates
-- Condorcet winner is President
-- Condorcet runner-up is Vice President
