In general, the votes should have a weight based on both region size and the sysops' opinions distribution (aggregated by RC).
For example, is one region has 100 sysops and another has 50, and they vote for 4 candidates with [-2, -1, 0, +1, +2] ballots (meaning "distrust", "not this time", "unsure", "let's see" and "full support", accordingly), the results may appear like this:
Candidate R1 R2 Total A +0.23 +0.34 0.23*100+0.34*50 == 40 B +0.09 +0.08 0.09*100+0.08*50 == 13 C -0.17 +0.32 -0.17*100+0.32*50 == -1 D +0.11 +0.12 0.11*100+0.12*50 == 17
Obviously enough, the candidate C wouldn't pass.
