31	Error check for our R-script:
32		Total seats 2019:	751	Value must be: 751. If value is slightly below 751, it is probably due to a temporary, unavoidable rounding error. If it is more than 4 seats below 751 there possibly is an error in our code. please contact us: contact@europeanelectionsstats.eu
33		Total seats 2014:	751	Value must be: 751. If value is not 751 there possibly is an error in our code. please contact us: contact@europeanelectionsstats.eu

35	Explanation of the 'Others_*' categories. Example: 'Others_far.left' is composed of 'new.far left' + 'ni.far left'. New are those parties that are not yet represented in the old EP. ni (non-inscrit) are those parties that are in the old EP but not affiliated to a political group.
