Master Electoral Seat Function — Full Mathematical Specification
V(E) = Σi=1→21 wi · xi · ci (t,s) + Ialliance δanti-incumb + εshock
S(seats) = round( V(E) × 570 )
subject to: S ∈ [0, 570]
majority = 272  |  safe majority = 290  |  wave = 350+  |  historic = 400+
Symbol Definitions
V(E) ∈ [0,1]
Electoral Victory Probability — normalised across all 21 variables
wᵢ ∈ [0,1]
Weight of variable i — shifts by election cycle, state, political context
xᵢ ∈ ℝ
Intensity of variable i — positive amplifies V(E); negative reduces it
cᵢ(t,s)
Contextual multiplier — function of time t and state s; always > 0
I(alliance)
Alliance bonus — seat-transfer synergy from pre-poll coalitions
δ(anti-incumb)
Decay factor ∝ Tenure × Fatigue × Failure_count
ε(shock)
Exogenous shock — war, assassination, crisis; range ±0.35
S ∈ [0, 570]
Seat projection — 0–2 = wipeout; 570 = theoretical total sweep
21 Component Sub-Functions
Mathematical Constraints
Σ wᵢ ≤ 21
Total weight bounded by variable count
V(E) ∈ [0, 1]
Normalised to probability space
S ∈ [0, 570]
Hard seat ceiling; 570 total seats
cᵢ(t,s) > 0 ∀ i
Context multiplier always positive
xᵢ can be negative
AI, K, M variables reduce V(E)
δ ∝ T × F
Anti-incumbency grows with tenure T & fatigue F
ε ∈ [−0.3, +0.4]
Shock can swing up to ±171 seats
Non-linear interactions
J×D amplifies; M×AI compounds; YV×EA multiplies
