Empty box breaks

[edit]

As seen here (before I removed it), this template breaks if there are no parameters. Example:

Example election[1]
Party Candidate 1st round 2nd round 1st round votesTransfer votes, 2nd round
Total Of round Transfers Total Of round
Independent Candidate 1 0 0%
Independent Candidate 2 0 0%
Independent Candidate 3 0 0%

What is the best way to deal with this (i.e. before an election result is declared)? Only return a line if there are parameters? Return something like "no winner declared yet" if {{{winner}}} is empty? Or documentation saying not to use it before the results are out? ‑‑YodinT 11:02, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Yodin I've changed it so nothing is displayed if there's no winner parameter. --Trialpears (talk) 10:05, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
