Abstract

In this paper we review (1) the electoral mechanisms that explain the victories in terms of
parliamentary seats but not in terms of votes, achieved by the CiU party in the last two Catalan
autonomous regional elections and (2) the possible electoral reforms that may be undertaken. Our
main conclusion is that artificial CiU parliamentary majorities are not so much related to pro rata
deviation as they are to variations of district magnitudes or «the variance effect».
