Just in case you think you might run out of things to discuss, there
were three elections in the world this month:

* Ireland held elections with Single Transferable Vote:

* Iran held elections with a Multiple Non-Transferable Vote:

* Niger needs a Run-off vote in March since the first round held today
did not result in a majority: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-35669018

* FIFA had an election too, with multiple round voting:
