Using Electoral Systems mind maps

These maps put related points together on a page, making them useful for tracing how a system works. Start with Proportional Systems to explore ranked preferences and candidate lists. Then look at First Past the Post, which sets out how the system works alongside its advantages and disadvantages.

For another approach, Alternative vote follows ranked choices, while Additional member system AMS introduces a system with majoritarian and proportional elements. The map on electoral institutions and the number of parties offers a different line of enquiry for more advanced study.
