Why Can MLC Counting Take Longer?
Graduates and teachers constituency elections use a preferential voting system. Depending on the count and whether a candidate reaches the required quota, additional counting rounds and transfer of preferences may be needed before the final result is declared.
For this reason, a candidate leading during an early round should not automatically be described as the winner. Wait for the returning officer or an official election authority to confirm the result.
