Question

In which type of electoral system do voters select the party of their choice rather than an individual candidate?

Answer 1

Answer:

proportional representation

Explanation:

In proportional representation, an electoral body strives to form a representative system that reflects the overall distribution of support that public shows to each political party. Voters select the party of their preference rather than the individual candidate.

The voters go and chose the party of their preference rathern than electing a candidate, as it goes in Denmark.

The first country to historically introduce this notion, later Belgium, Finland Hungary and many others have included this measure

When doing so, the plurality or majority system then allows in turn an effective reward for a strong party and penalize a weak party when it provides the representation to a single candidate possesing less than half of the votes.

Contrary to what happens in the US, proportional representation is ensuring that minority parties have some masures of representation according to their electoral support.
