Do you like it?

We vote for parties,
parties are offered the opportunity to form government in the order of the vote they received.
This happens through coalitions.
If a party cannot for a majority through a coalition it can still form a minority government with the support of opposition.
However this means a small opposition party could hold the government hostage. This happened with our putinbot party, which held a socialist government hostage with a single golden vote.
Anyway.
We have a 4% minimum to enter parliament and we have a president that's irrelevant.
Our system is perfection it self, and the people who try to change it deserve to get shot.

Yes, it's probably like this in 50% of the world

>>72247618
This is what... the golden standard?
Coalition government and minimum enter threshold(in some fancy way).
Its pretty great. Only downside is that you are still suffering media influencing what is a good vote.

The best.
Each state is allotted electoral votes based on population and the winner of the state takes all the votes unless it's Maine or Nebraska.
First presidential nominee to reach 270 electoral votes wins:

It works fine. Apparently it slightly favors bigger parties but as the finns party showed if your policies have support you can easily go from single digits to double digits in just one election.

Sounds neat.

If it's not media it's your friends or demogues or your parents.
Most people don't have the time to form an opinion based on understanding. We rely on society to give us a raw split and than we pick a side.
The function of democracy is to ensure changes happen peacefully more than to supply the best policy or the best leadership.
