Clues

  • A constituency in a legislative body which is considered fully secure, the same political party retains the seat from election to election (4, 5)
  • A government formed by a political party that doesn't have an overall majority of MP's (8, 10)
  • A government formed jointly by more than one party (9, 10)
  • A seat that isn't guaranteed to be taken by one party, can be held by smaller parties (8, 4)
  • A simple plurality electoral system, members vote for which MP they want to represent their constituency, MP with most votes wins (5, 4, 3, 4, 4)
  • Formal decision-making process in which citizens vote for what they want, this creates representative democracy (8)
  • The method used to calculate the amount of elected posititions in government that individuals and parties are awarded after elections (9, 6)
