The problem

Election outcomes are difficult to reason about when vote assumptions live in disconnected spreadsheets and static commentary.

The useful question is not only who may win, but how different district-level assumptions change the projected distribution of parliamentary seats.

The approach

Turn district vote assumptions into an interactive model, then visualise projected parliamentary seat distribution in one browser-based workflow.

The first public version was deliberately built in 48 hours to test the model and make the concept available for real use and feedback.
