Methodology

Election-system aware Decision Report

Nigerian elections run on first-past-the-post at every legislative and county tier. The Decision Report computes per-constituency vote share with a margin of error on every number, classifies each LGA as safe / lean / tilt / toss-up, and ranks LGAs by competitiveness — no party-list maths, just per-seat outcomes.
