    In some systems there are some seats reserved to be allocated in such a way that corrects for discrepancies between the proportion of votes a party receives and their share of the seats in the legislature (i.e. a "corrective tier"). Because the allocation of seats in a corrective tier is not independent of the distribution of votes in a particular segment- in fact, it is this distribution that determines the allocation of seats in the corrective tier- the presence of corrective tiers has no bearing on the number of electoral segments. Only those characteristics of directly elected tiers are reported in these data.

?:groupDescription
  • CSES is a collaborative program of research among election study teams from around the world. The research program as well as the questionnaire and the study design are developed by an international committee of leading social researchers. Participating countries include a common module of survey questions in their post-election studies. The data contain information on individual choice behavior, demographics, the constituencies, the national election results and the political systems. The studies are then merged into a single, free, public dataset for use in comparative study and cross-level analysis. (en)
  • Die CSES ist eine weltweite Kooperation von Wahlforschern. Das Forschungsprogramm, der Fragebogen und das Studiendesign werden durch ein internationales Planungskomitee führender Sozialforscher erstellt. Teilnehmende Länder implementieren einen einheitlichen Fragenkomplex in ihre Nachwahlstudien. Die erhoben Daten umfassen das individuelle Wahlverhalten, politische Einstellungen und sozio-demographische Merkmale sowie Angaben zu den Wahlbezirken, den nationalen Wahlergebnissen und dem nationalen politischen System. Die einzelnen Länderstudien werden in einen gemeinsamen Datensatz integriert und stehen der Wissenschaft für vergleichende und länderübergreifende Untersuchungen frei zur Verfügung. (de)

  • DEFINITION: In some electoral systems, there are electoral districts that are geographically nested but not otherwise related for purposes of seat allocation. In Lithuania, for example, there are 71 single-member districts that operate under a majority runoff system, and also a single nation-wide district that operates under proportional representation (the largest remainders method with the Hare quota). Neither votes nor seats from the single-member districts transfer to the nationwide district, however. The two processes are entirely independent (with voters having one vote in each district). In this case, the nationwide district, although it contains the 71 single-member districts, is not considered to be secondary. It is primary. One might say that there are two segments to the electoral system in such cases.
    NOTE TO COLLABORATORS: Note, systems with multiple segments are different from systems with multiple tiers: In some systems, there is a corrective tier to compensate for disproportionality in seat allocation. As seats in these corrective tiers are allocated according to the 'original' vote totals, the number of tiers is independent of the number of segments.
