Comments
SecurePoll elects candidates 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

OpenSTV elects candidates 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

In SecurePoll, the minimum the droop quota can get in theory is 1, which is low enough to elect candidate 6 (who has exactly 1 vote). However, in this example, the quota never gets lower than 4.

This is a variant of 20_6_5100_106188776 and 20_6_5100_1090197746.
