The Sternberger book (Dolf Sternberger, Bernhard Vogel, Dieter Nohlen & Klaus Landfried (1978) Die Wahl der Parlamente: Band II: Afrika, Erster Halbband, p1115) gives different results, specifically detailed below. Strangely all the differences are where there is a 9 or 0. I am getting the book that Sternberger uses as a source tomorrow. Number 57 18:53, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that Sternberger misinterpreted the book (Liberia's Past and Present), which states "nine" for all the cases where Sternberger et al. has 0 (i.e. none). Number 57 17:48, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
