Dual-member proportional representationDual-member proportional representation (DMP), also known as dual-member mixed proportional, is an electoral system designed to produce proportional election results across a region by electing two representatives in each of the region’s districts. The first seat in every district is awarded to the candidate who receives the most votes, similar to first-past-the-post voting (FPTP). The second seat is awarded to one of the remaining district candidates so that proportionality is achieved across the region, using a calculation that aims to award parties their seats in the districts where they had their strongest performances.
Système mixteLes systèmes mixtes sont des systèmes électoraux dans lesquels on intègre (scrutin mixte à finalité proportionnelle) ou bien on adjoint (scrutin parallèle) un scrutin majoritaire à un scrutin proportionnel afin d'élire une assemblée législative. Dans certains cas, il s'agit de compenser les conséquences de la surreprésentation d'une liste ayant obtenu le plus de voix dans le cadre d'un scrutin majoritaire. Cela a pour effet que des listes minoritaires soient quand même représentées au sein de l'assemblée concernée.
ScorporoScorporo (ˈskɔrporo, parceling out) is a partially compensatory, mixed-member majoritarian electoral system, sometimes referred to as a negative vote transfer system (NVT) whereby a portion of members are elected in single-member districts (SMDs) and a portion are elected from a list. It may be fully defined as a parallel voting system which excludes a portion (up to 100%) of the SMD winners' votes in electing the proportional tier, to result in a more proportional outcome.
Scrutin à vote unique transférableLe scrutin à vote unique transférable (ou système de Hare) est un système électoral destiné à élire plusieurs candidats. Il est inventé vers 1860, indépendamment par Thomas Hare et par Carl Andrae. Il est utilisé en Irlande, à Malte, en Australie et plus particulièrement en Tasmanie, au Népal, occasionnellement en Estonie et en Alberta (Canada) entre 1926 et 1955. Il est également utilisé aujourd'hui pour les élections locales en Écosse (Royaume-Uni) et certaines élections locales en Nouvelle-Zélande et aux États-Unis, notamment pour la mairie de Wellington et de Portland.
Parallel votingParallel voting is a type of mixed electoral system in which representatives are voted into a single chamber using two or more different systems, most often first-past-the-post voting (FPTP) with party-list proportional representation (PR). It is the most common form of mixed member majoritarian representation (MMM), which is why these terms are often used synonymously with each other. In some countries, parallel voting is known as the supplementary member (SM) system, while in academic literature it is sometimes called the superposition method within mixed systems.
