Elections in the State of Athens
V Ancient Greece used open voting and secret ballot by lot. The "bulletin" was a bob: white bob meant "for", black meant "against." In Athens, there was another type of secret ballot “court of shards”: according to it, the community had the right to expel any public figure from the city limits if his popularity threatened the foundations of democracy. The voting procedure looked like this: a participant received a shard and wrote on it the name of a person whom he considered necessary to expel from Athens, and then placed the shard in a special fenced-in place on the square. The one whose name was repeated more times was declared exiled. In ancient Rome, the election campaign began long before election day. The candidate announced to the authorities about his desire to run. After that, the pre-election struggle began. It happened as follows: a candidate put on a snow-white toga (candidate), which meant his clear conscience, and went to squares and bazaars, asking for support from voters. On election day, each voter received a small plaque - a ballot paper - and wrote the name of the candidate on it and lowered it into the ballot box.

There are two main types of electoral systems: majority and proportional, as well as mixed systems. Until 2003, a proportional-majority system was used in Russia, in which half of the candidates entered parliament on party lists, and the other half were elected in local constituencies on the basis of the majority system.
Slide 10
Majority system
From (French Majoritee) - majority. Under this system, the one for whom the majority of votes was cast is considered elected, and the votes cast for the rest of the candidates are not counted. The two-round majority system is used in Russia for the presidential elections. The majority system has two types - an absolute majority (a candidate who receives an absolute majority of votes, i.e. 50% + 1 vote) and a relative majority (a candidate who receives a simple majority of votes is considered elected; to win such elections, the number of votes collected can be less than 50%).

So, if only 3 main parties A, B and C entered parliament, for which 40%, 25% and 15% of the votes were cast, respectively, then the remaining 20% of the votes cast for the parties that did not pass the threshold will be distributed in a ratio of 40:25:15 and in fact party A will receive 50%, party B - 31.25%, and party C - 18.75% of the vote. The proportional election system has been operating in Russia since 2003. This system is also used in elections in Israel, Italy, etc.
