Badger of Basra posted:Germany and New Zealand (and maybe other places idk) use the same system but they call it MMP instead of AMS. There are separate wikipedia articles for MMP vs. AMS and I have no idea why because I'm pretty sure they're exactly the same. Not exactly, Germany (no idea about NZ) uses a variation where the list/proportional votes are the sole determinant of the relative number of seats a party can gain, irrespective of local/constituency votes. So if party X gets 40% of the list votes, they get 40% of the seats in the respective parliament, irrespective of the constituency results. The constituency votes just decide which particular party members get to fill those seats, and once all constituency winners have been placed the remaining seats are filled from the list. If a party wins more constituency seats than they would be entitled to from the list vote, the size of the parliament is increased with additional seats to the other parties so that the proportion of seats for each party stays the same.
