Uhhh, 50 percent + 1 = more than half.  Again, we're in agreement. But I don't want to get into a circular argument either.

If 355 votes are cast, 50 percent would be 177.5. The majority would be 178. Using your formula the base would be 177.5 plus 1 equaling 178.5. Rounding up (since you can't have half a person,) the winner would need 179. Elections have been lost because of this misinterpretation.
