It seems the problem was simply the precedence in the expression. The
statement that works is:
13>=(count(./elections)+count(./dependents))
notice the parentheses wrapping the sum of the counts. It turns out that
'>' is okay in XMLSpy although '<' is not, so to be consistent, it's
probably a good idea to always escape them ('>' => '>' and '<' =>
'<'). Thanks for your help Adam, Marcus, and Jochen!

Hello,
I'm not sure what xsl processor xml spy uses but i have found that some
xsl
processors don't like the '>' character and should be replaced with the
symbolic equivilant.
try using an >= instead of >= ?
Just a guess cause it doesn't look like that statement should be trying
to
return a nodelist.

Thanks for the speedy reply, but the XSL processor built into XML Spy
replies:
[ERROR] Can not convert #NUMBER to a NodeList!
