For elections, when votes for one of the parties are redirected to support another party, does anyone know how this redirect works? In my current riftborn game, my first election ended up with 2 industrialist representatives, 1 scientist, 1 religious and 1 pacifist. No matter which party I give official support too, the scientist and religious votes go to the pacifists, making pacifists my second party. (Not what I was going for--I thought I'd like scientist party for the Dirty Hands Act law). So I'm currious if it is random or what. None of my pops have a pro-pacifist preference.

Party always redirect their support to the same other party. You can see the political circle in the population screen for exemple, on it every party redirect their vote to the adjacents party (and to a lesser extend the pary next to them, but never the opposing party). I think there is a devblog about this on this forum we should chek it to be sure.

(I'm not sure if I'm clear my english failed me today ^^)

The GDD's are sorely in need of an update to get an idea of how the game is supposed to work in the devs view. So it can't really be fully trusted right now.

I found where I learned about it. It wasn't in the devblog my memory failed me. It was on this wonderful video from Warevyn's World. Especially at 10:30.
