Jeremy Vine, explains just how the D'Hondt system of proportional representation works. This is the system used in European elections not the UKs general election which is first past the post. The D'Hondt system tends to favour smaller parties. Victor d'Hondt was born in Belgium in 1841, he attended Ghent University and first described the d'Hondt method in 1878. This system is used for elections in Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Chile, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Israel, Japan, Netherlands, N. Ireland, Paraguay, Poland, Portugal, Republic of Ireland, Scotland, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland Turkey, Iceland, Walesetc. The alternate spellings of D'Hondt stem from Victors Belgium birth where names can be spelt in either French or Flemish. It is alleged that Victor became so obsessed with perfecting his voting method that his wife took her own life rather than have it explained to her again. After watching this explainer you may have some sympathy with her. Produced by the BBCs Election Team and Brainstorm

How do we know who the new Ministers are going to be?
The Executive Ministers are appointed using a mathematical formula, called 'd'Hondt', which ensures that these important positions are filled fairly, based on the wishes of the people who voted in the election.
Watch this animation made by the NI Assembly's Education Service to find out how d'Hondt works, and how the Assembly and Executive work together to make laws and decisions which affect all of us in Northern Ireland.

The usual description of D'Hondt voting is more complicated than necessary, which probably means that the people explaining don't have a good understanding. For UK European Parliament elections, the D'Hondt sequence is irrelevant. We only need to know the number of seats awarded to each party. I've read comments that the D'Hondt system prevents proportional representation for less popular parties. The problem is not caused by the D'Hondt system which is proportional representation. The reason that parties don't get proportional representation in the UK is that the UK is split into regions with only a small number of seats allocated in each region, and the proportions for a small number of seats may be quite inaccurate.

Imagine we want to build a new space port at one of four recently settled Martian bases, and are holding a vote to choose its location. Of the 100 colonists on Mars, 42 live on West Base, 26 on North Base, 15 on South Base, and 17 on East Base. Assuming that everyone wants the port to be closest to their home base, what is the fairest way to conduct the vote? Alex Gendler digs into voting systems.

D'Hondt method
The D'Hondt method (also known as Jefferson's method and Bader-Ofer method) is a highest averages method for allocating seats in party-list proportional representation. The method described is named in United States after Thomas Jefferson, who introduced the method for proportional allocation of seats in United States House of Representatives in 1791, and in Europe after Belgian mathematician Victor D'Hondt, who described it in 1878 for proportional allocation of parliamentary seats to the parties. There are two forms: closed list (a party selects the order of election of their candidates) and an open list (voters' choices determine the order).
Proportional representation systems aim to allocate seats to parties in proportion to the number of votes received. For example, if a party wins one-third of the votes then it should gain one-third of the seats. In general, exact proportionality is not possible because these divisions produce fractional numbers of seats. As a result, several methods, of which the D'Hondt method is one, have been devised which guarantee that the parties' seat allocations are whole numbers that sum to the correct total, while aiming to preserve proportionality as far as is possible. In comparison with the Sainte-Laguë method, D'Hondt slightly favours large parties and coalitions over scattered small parties.

Dive into four different voting systems: plurality, instant runoff, tactical, and the Condorcet method, and find out which is fairest.
--
Imagine we want to build a new space port at one of four recently settled Martian bases, and are holding a vote to choose its location. Of the 100 colonists on Mars, 42 live on West Base, 26 on North Base, 15 on South Base, and 17 on East Base. Assuming that everyone wants the port to be closest to their home base, what is the fairest way to conduct the vote? Alex Gendler digs into voting systems.

D'Hondt method
The D'Hondt method (also known as Jefferson's method and Bader-Ofer method) is a highest averages method for allocating seats in party-list proportional representation. The method described is named in United States after Thomas Jefferson, who introduced the method for proportional allocation of seats in United States House of Representatives in 1791, and in Europe after Belgian mathematician Victor D'Hondt, who described it in 1878 for proportional allocation of parliamentary seats to the parties. There are two forms: closed list (a party selects the order of election of their candidates) and an open list (voters' choices determine the order).
Proportional representation systems aim to allocate seats to parties in proportion to the number of votes received. For example, if a party wins one-third of the votes then it should gain one-third of the seats. In general, exact proportionality is not possible because these divisions produce fractional numbers of seats. As a result, several methods, of which the D'Hondt method is one, have been devised which guarantee that the parties' seat allocations are whole numbers that sum to the correct total, while aiming to preserve proportionality as far as is possible. In comparison with the Sainte-Laguë method, D'Hondt slightly favours large parties and coalitions over scattered small parties.
