The winner takes it all
In the British election they do it in a different way then we do it in Norway. With the topic "the winner takes it all" I mean how they divide the power between the parties. When a party in Britain gets the most votes, the party win the whole election, and all the power. Compared to Norway this is very different. We have the power divided on all the parties that receive more than 5% of the votes. So the party with the most votes get more power and the other way with the parties with the least votes.

It is difficult to explain the difference between the systems but one way is to say that in the British election it is impossible for a very small political party to get a MP. That way the Norwegian system is more fair to the smaller parties.
SvarSlettHey Kristin! I believe our classes are exchanging blog comments. Your page is great. The Norwegian system isn't much different from the US. Anyway, take a look at my blog at mhsnick09.edublogs.org and comment me.
