Hey I hope i didnt come across badly in earlier post. I was just trying to say that political systems are different. I dont think one is designed more than another to let one in who 'didnt really win'
If you take various other democracies, say you have 4 main runners. one gets 40 one gets 30 one gets 20 and the other 10. Some systems may 'give' victory to the 40% winner flatout. Others will say that 'no one had a majority, so lets keep the top two and rerun. In the above the third and 4th could have been offshoots of the 2nd guy's party, so those voters will now vote for the second guy. Now all of a sudden, the second guys wins 60-40. <assuming no one else 'shows up to vote, and didn't vote the first time'> Now.. I can see how people representing the first guy might feel 'robbed' of victory, but that is the way it works. If he had just won the first time with 51%, he wouldnt have been robbed. they are just different.. but they all have rules layed out ahead of time... thanks.
