✦ Synopsis

Given m states, which form a union, every year a chairman has to be selected in such a way that at any time the accumulated number of chairmen from each state is proportional to its weight. In this paper an algorithm for a chairman assignment is given which, depending on the weights, guarantees a small discrepancy.
