    What a tosser. You’re supposed to hire mathematicians to help you design a fair election system BEFORE you hold elections! Not hold a non-proportional FPTP election and then go “Uhhh, actually that election wasn’t fair”.

      Funny enough, the election was actually by a proportional system. Some of the great gripes of the Bolsheviks was that there was universal suffrage (instead of just people in careers they deemed ‘proletarian’ enough), the ballots were secret (something to HIDE, comrade?), and not delegated to the local Soviets/workers’ councils - where everybody knows your name! 😊
