Quote from: JOE on Today at 05:23:24 AMSometimes in Canada the Conservatives only get 20% or less of the vote in some provinces during elections. But they still end up with 2 MPs or seats.
I know Canada may not be perfect, but at least if one of the parties gets enough votes in a particular district, they still get representation.
If Canada ran like the states, and the Liberals got only 40% of the vote, and Conservatives received 39.5%, under American rules, they'd still get nothing. The Liberals would take every seat/vote. And of course, that's not fair. If a party gets enough votes, they should be represented. Likewise, Liberals should be represented if they lose in that scenario too.
Say if there's 11 ev's, and its a virtual tie, the winner gets 6 and the loser gets 5.
Winner take all sucks.
Go fuck yourself with a rusty wire welding brush, Thiel-sleeve.
