### Proportional Representation
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* Half of the seats determined by provincial lists
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<notes>
|
|||
|
|
* = vote for party, party gets seats according to share of votes
|
|||
|
|
* half of seats by voting on national lists, other half on provincial lists
|
|||
|
|
* disadvantage: provinces quite large (9) → not really local
|
|||
|
|
* possible disadvantage: no threshold → many small parties (not important,
|
|||
|
|
why: next step)

* Historic: ANC is seen as party of liberation as it’s the first
|
|||
|
|
democraticratically elected party
|
|||
|
|
* Leaders: Nelson Mandela was a member of the ANC. His popularity helps the
|
|||
|
|
ANC.
|
|||
|
|
* Constitution: No (really) local representatives → regional parties cannot
|
|||
|
|
gain many seats
