A bug?

In my recent GOTM, I was going for diplo win (and I won), I am not sure if this is as it should be. I know that Napoleon (pleased with me) had second best population with 111 votes, and was third in score, nevertheless, Mansa (friendly) was my opponent with 107 for diplomatic victory. I had to give bunch of tech to Napoleon to win.

did you build the UN or did Mansa?

ofcourse I did, I won only after I made Napoleon second in score

just checking I think the calculation for UN votes differs from the calculations for highest populations. I think UN votes is based on how many population points a civ has, ignoring how many people each point is worth...whereas UN candidates are based on actual population.

I could be wrong, but I believe someone mentioned that to me when I had a question about population and votes in GOTM9

Was Mansa Musa, per chance, second in score?
