The first two people on the list to receive THREE votes advances, so no, Thingol and Finduilas have not been officially elected.

In addition, the rule is we can only vote for one of these people at a time. To cast another vote we must wait until two other Downers cast a vote. Thus, either Thingol or Finduilas does not currently have a vote (for the sake of the tally I subtracted Thingol's vote).

I will cast my vote for Elrond.

Elrond-1
Finduilas-1
Arwen-0
Turgon-0
Voronwë-0
Elu Thingol-0
Cirdan-0
Fingolfin-0

Sorry for any confusion. Just vote for one
at a time in this prelim. Thanks.
Think I'll go with Cirdan, since he was active
in Middle-earth since before the Noldor returned
to Beleriand through into the Fourth Age.

Elrond-1
Finduilas-1
Arwen-0
Turgon-0
Voronwë-0
Elu Thingol-0
Cirdan-1
Fingolfin-0

First to get to three votes gets in. (I just thought it would
be a way to give everyone's favorite not yet in na chance).

Oh, duh. Sorry about that; I thought you meant the next two to get thirded (since all had two) not the first in this list to receive three votes. My mistake. *blushes*

The idea was to have one vote at a time as a sort of playoff to get
the last candidate, for a total of 20. So how about counting your first cited vote
(for Finduilas)? If so, and therefore not counting Thingol's vote, the
total so far would be

Elrond-1
Finduilas-2
Arwen-0
Turgon-0
Voronwë-0
Elu Thingol-0
Cirdan-1
Fingolfin-0

Again, sorry for the confusion.
