mixed-member proportional
noun
- A voting system used in Germany and New Zealand in which voters get two votes, one for a local representative MP and one for a political party, and in which the number of seats that a party gets in parliament is based on the percentage of votes that the party receives. First, by abolishing the closed party lists for more than a half of the Chamber of Deputies, the mixed-member proportional system would help create direct linkages between parties, constituencies, and legislators.
