Tom,

The threshold I was referring to was the official one, namely, the *3% of votes, not of the eligible*. The 3% rule is based on the former. Popular Unity received 2.86% of the votes. I wasn't any longer referring to the calculation made by the website I linked.

Anyway, if anyone has information on the character of its campaign, I'd welcome it; its founding members are very committed ones.

"The fact that Popular Unity was not able to pass the 3% threshold for
representation in Parliament..."

Correction: it was not able to pass the 54% of 3% threshold. You cannot
change measuring rods in midstream.
