The Sainte-Laguë Method is a method used to elect candidates from political parties in approximate proportion as the proportion of votes won by that party. To illustrate its use, suppose 10 seats are to be divided among 4 parties, receiving 25,000, 19,000, 12,000, and 8,000 votes apiece. A table is set up as follows: This system often provides for a slightly more accurate proportionality than the D'Hondt Method, though in this case the results do not differ.
