“…Even if there are questions and controversies about these relations (Blais, 2006), generally, VT it correlates positively with district size (Blais and Aarts, 2006;Kostadinova and Power, 2007), it is greater when voting is compulsory (Blais and Dobrzynska, 1998;Franklin, 2004;Geys, 2006;Stockemer and Scruggs, 2012), in unicameral systems (Fornos et al, 2004;Kostadinova and Power, 2007), in presidential systems (Stockemer and Calca, 2012), and in systems with proportional representation (Blais and Aarts, 2006;Blais and Dobrzynska, 1998;Geys, 2006). According to some studies (Endersby and Krieckhaus, 2008), the last finding is true only for fully democratic countries in systems with proportional representation, but other studies show that the relation between electoral disproportionality and VT increase in time even in the new democracies (Gallego, Rico, and Anduiza, 2012).…”
