Future Korea Party
The Future Korea Party (), stylised as Future KOREA Party, was a political party in South Korea formed on 5 February 2020. History The party was formed as a satellite party to the Liberty Korea Party (LKP) in order to run for the proportional seats in the 2020 elections, taking advantage of the new electoral law. The party chose the name of Proportional Liberty Korea Party ( ko, 비례자유한국당), emphasizing their relationship with the LKP. However, the National Election Commission disallowed parties from using "Proportional (비례)" in their names, which forced the party to adopt the current name. The party chose "Future (미래 ''Mirae'')" that is pronounced similar to "Proportional (비례 ''Birye'')". On 5 February 2020, the party took the official formation convention and elected Han Sun-kyo as its President by acclamation, while Cho Hun-hyun was named the Secretary-General. All of its MPs were originally LKP MPs who declared they would not seek re-election at th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Decoy List
Mixed-member proportional representation (MMP or MMPR) is a mixed electoral system in which votes cast are considered in local elections and also to determine overall party vote tallies, which are used to allocate additional members to produce or deepen overall Proportional representation. In some MMP systems, voters get two votes: one to decide the representative for their single-seat constituency, and one for a political party. In Denmark and others, the single vote cast by the voter is used for both the local election (in a multi-member or single-seat district), and for the overall top-up. Seats in the legislature are filled first by the successful constituency candidates, and second, by party candidates based on the percentage of nationwide or region-wide votes that each party received. The constituency representatives are usually elected using first-past-the-post voting (FPTP) but the Scandinavian countries have a long history of using both multi-member districts (memb ...
