Yeah, multi-seat electorates will provide more more representative representation certainly.

- pas 8y agoHuh? Currently in a "first past the post" voting system every district has a lot of votes that are lost. If a candidate wins with 51%, then 49% of those votes are lost. Gone. Poof. And gerrymandering exploits this by creating a lot of these districts, let's say that likely results in 60-40%. Those 40%s are lost. One way to solve that is to bundle districts, because if you bundle 10 such 60-40 districts, then you should end up with 6-4 instead of 10-0.
