Well, last count of actual votes, revealed that the right wing got 49 000 more votes than the left wing. Still the left wing got majority of seats in the government because votes in the bigger counties in terms of area size, counts for more than the small ones. So because the big ones have more voters for the left wing than the smaller ones, we get a government that isn't truly elected by the people. Last election the right wing had 22 000 more votes, but didn't get majority back then either.

So, pretty much the same as good ol' U.S of A on that...we all remember how Bush got his spot in the first place.
