    Its missleading to bass too much on that analysis. The parties don’t compete for the popular vote but to concentrate votes within seats they feel they can win.

    No one was aiming to win the popular vote. I agree that’s a problem but we can’t really read to much into the split imo.

      Let’s hope my doomongering is just that, with other countries in Europe starting to swing that way I hope it’s not sign of the future.
