Electoral system

Bornholm currently elects two of the 179 members of the Folketing using the open party-list proportional representation electoral system.[3][4] Constituency seats are allocated using the D'Hondt method.[5][6] Compensatory seats are calculated based on the national vote and are allocated using the Sainte-Laguë method, initially at the provincial level and finally at the constituency level.[7][8] Only parties that reach any one of three thresholds stipulated by section 77 of the Folketing (Parliamentary) Elections Act - winning at least one constituency seat; obtaining at least the Hare quota (valid votes in province/number of constituency seats in province) in two of the three provinces; or obtaining at least 2% of the national vote - compete for compensatory seats.[9][10]
