Additional Member system
  1. How it works
    1. Mixture of FPTP and the list
      1. Each voter has two votes, one for constituency representative and one for a regional party list
        1. A proportion of seats are filled by FPTP. The remaining seats are filled using 'closed' party list system. Tops up
        2. Where it is used
          1. The Welsh assembly
          2. Advantages
            1. The mixed characteristics of this system balances the need for constituency representation against the need for electoral fairness
              1. Although the system is broadly proportional in terms of it outcomes, it keeps alive the possibility of single party government
                1. It allows voters to make wider and more considered choices. For example they can vote for different parties in the constituency and list elections
                2. Disadvantage
                  1. The retention of single member constituencies reduces the likelihood of high levels of proportionality
                    1. The system creates confusion by having two classes of representation
                      1. Constituency representation will be less effective than it is FPTP because of the larger size of constituencies and because a proportion have no constituency
