New Zealand
In New Zealand's MMP system, the "party list" refers to the closed list of candidates nominated by a registered party for election to the New Zealand Parliament. Voters cast two votes: one for an electorate candidate and one for the party at large. The "party vote" determines the overall distribution of seats in Parliament, with candidates from the party list being elected based on their ranking on the list.
