http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~VFP8CodenameSuggestions~VFPI know that "1 more than half of all votes cast" is the usual terminology in this case. However, it would be more correct to say "1/2 more than half of all votes cast", or simply "more than half of all votes cast". "1 more" is correct only for an even number of total votes.
