That is filled in sequence until there is a tie among enough categories that not all in the tie can be added. I understand what you are probably asking about as in if there are two slots remaining and three categories at equal vote totals would first and second in the runoff fill the last two open slots? Or something like that?
Exactly. With the earlier numbers there was a 3- way tie for both 6th and 7th place, so there were 6 categories that had the potential of filling 5 spaces.

Would the 3 that tied for 6th place automatically get in, and if so in what order? Or would all 6 categories have been placed in the run-off poll since there was no clear winner among the lot?
