"I will now announce the results of the first ballot in the election of the Quaestors. Ms LULLING: 297 votes Mr Maštálka: 232 votes Mr Newton Dunn: 177 votes Mr SPERONI: 106 votes None of the candidates has received the absolute majority of the votes cast. Therefore, all five seats remain unfilled and a second ballot is needed. I assume that all the candidates for the office of Quaestor wish to continue their candidacy. Is there anyone who wishes to withdraw his or her candidacy? No one wishes to do this, so we will move on to a second ballot with all these candidates. I propose that we use the electronic voting system in this second ballot. I will now announce the result of the vote: Votes cast: 684 Votes cast: 593. The absolute majority is 297. No one has achieved the absolute majority. Ms LULLING: 280 votes Mr HIGGINS: 263 votes Ms Geringer de Oedenberg: 234 votes Mr Maštálka: 226 votes Mr Liberadzki: 209 votes Mr Newton Dunn: 170 votes Mr SPERONI: 114 votes Therefore, we now need a third ballot where a simple majority applies. I have just been informed that the third ballot will take place this evening at 20:00. Invalid votes: 15 I propose that we hold the vote now. The third ballot will now take place. The vote can begin once all the candidates have stated that they wish to continue their candidacy. Would anyone like to withdraw? Everyone is continuing their candidacy. I will now announce the result of the vote: Votes cast: 600. The majority is therefore 301, but it is no longer required. Ms LULLING: 273 votes Mr HIGGINS: 254 votes Ms Geringer de Oedenberg: 235 votes Mr Liberadzki: 216 votes Valid votes cast: 669 Mr Maštálka: 207 votes Mr Newton Dunn: 182 votes Mr SPERONI: 104 votes The following Members have been elected: Ms Lulling, Mr Higgins, Ms Geringer de Oedenberg, Mr Liberadzki and Mr Maštálka. Does anyone who has been elected not accept the election? Everyone accepts it. I would like to congratulate all those who have been elected. I would also like to say that the Bureau of the European Parliament has now been fully elected and that we will constitute it as quickly as possible. Therefore, the absolute majority required in the first ballot is 335 votes. I will now read out the results. Ms Geringer de Oedenberg: 237 votes Mr HIGGINS: 284 votes Mr Liberadzki: 222 votes"@en1
