In all, there were 265 votes counted for the 3 seats for Pastoral Council. 2 Ballots had four votes on them and 1 was unsigned. Therefore, they were not counted. Regarding the former, I think there was some confusion about the number of seats to be filled, because there were four people leaving Pastoral Council. However, the ballots did indicate that votes should be cast for any three of those on the ballot.
