They were this close to totally and forever flipping this country into the commie ' s laps . And they are pissed off . <| sep |> Really hoping for Iniesta ' s return in El Clasico . <| sep |> Jumping on board , if anyone has two be sure to send me a PM as well <| sep |> The point is not that every member is elected individually , but that proportions are preserved in the German parliament . A German elector has 2 votes one to elect a local representative in parliament , and one to elect a party . Every elected local representative gets a seat in parliament . There are cases where your party gets more seats in parliament than it would get proportionally 2 nd vote . Those seats are called excess mandates German berhangmandat . To ensure that the parliament is constituted according to the proportions 2 nd vote the other parties get additional leveling seats German Ausgleichsmandat . So on the one hand every district has its local representative and on the other hand the proportions are preserved . That is how you build up a multiparty system .
