Why don't percents add to 100?

Rounding?

9.18 + 15.30 + 2.04 + 7.14 + 3.06 + 14.28 = 51.00

I think somebody needs to check his math.

No, somebody is misinterpreting the format of the results.

Code:

  9 votes 18%

15 votes  30%

 2 votes   4%

 7 votes  14%

 3 votes   6%

14 votes  28%

-------------

50 votes 100%

It took me a long time to figure that out, too.

DOH!!! What a chucklehead I am!

Thanks, I probably would have gone on forever wondering why the percents always added up to one more than the number of votes.
