the electoral system swiss style
1.Three ways in which Swiss MPs are quite unusual
2.Three examples of how Swiss people participate in politics
- Swiss people have a chance to change the laws by collecting 50,000 signatures (paragraph 2, line 4)
- the Swiss can offer laws if they collect 100,000 signatures from the citizens (paragraph 2, line 7)
- People in Swiss act as an important role in the election in which they vote for the candidates 15 times a year (paragraph 2, line 9)
3.How members of the National Council and the Senate are selected
-The Senate is determined by their cantons electing two of each, no divide for population size
- The National Council has 200 MPs and these members are selected through a complicated stage of representations. After that, each canton can receive lists of candidates which are sent to the electorate next and the locals will vote for the specific candidates.
