In a two-party system, the electorate is left with minimal options, often choosing between the lesser of two evils; adopting proportional representation could alleviate this dilemma.
Proportional representation allows for a variety of perspectives to be reflected in government, making it more likely that voters will find political representation closer to their own values.
The current political framework often oversimplifies complex issues into dualistic terms, ignoring the nuances of voter ideologies; this is where new systems like proportional representation could shine.
Visual representations, such as scatterplots, can effectively communicate the ideological spectrum of the electorate, highlighting how a multi-party system might better reflect the diversity of opinion.
