To everyone mad in the replies: - The whole point of this is not to be 100% realistic. It's to show how it would've gone under a different system. Obviously, it's impossible to tell for sure how people would vote under this system, but it's unlikely to be radically different. - The list vote is better than constituency since the list is voting for a party, not one particular individual. It's not ideal for complete accuracy, but is it better to do list than constituency. - I couldn't have gone for an average between list and constituency because the greens didn't run in the vast majority of constituencies. In constituencies where the greens did win, they did similarly well in list vote. - for unionist parties, there isn't much of a tactical vote element in the list. Unionist parties got similar percentages in both the list and constituency. The only significant difference was the SNP/Green numbers, which is why we can be sure that this system produced a unionist majority. It's probable SNP gets a few more seats, but that would be mostly at expense of the Greens. - No, Scotland does not currently use the D'hondt method in the same way Wales does (the purpose of this tweet). Scotland uses FPTP seats and then additional seats using D'hondt where the number of FPTP seats won are taken into account. It still produces different outcomes when the system changes. To summarise, this is just for fun, meant to be somewhat informative based on real voting but shouldn't be taken as gospel.

2026 Holyrood election if it used the D'hondt method. (Wales system). 120 seats, 12 constituencies of 10 MSPs, votes based on the list votes not constituency SNP 32 RFM 23 LAB 20 GRN 18 CON 16 LDM 11 SNP short 29 of a majority Unionist majority of 20. Vastly different result from just a different system of PR....

@stopthesupermaj Yes, because they were taking advantage of the quirk of the election system. So GRN list vote is overestimated and SNP underestimated in all probability.

It was an honour to be sworn in yesterday. Our politics is more fractured than ever and voter turnout was shockingly low in this recent election. This parliament needs to be focussed on making the lives of people in Scotland better, not more student politics and grievance.

@Celtic67Champs Not backtracking at all ya fud. He’s trying to put all his team’s concentration on Saturday. To keep going on about the travesty on Tuesday will just seem like getting excuses in early.

@mandy_riddler @dylan04gla I’ve no issues with him doing well in life but I do have a problem with his sneering attitude towards people who haven’t had that fortune. It was the typical Thatcherite attitude in the 80’s and not a good look.

Malcolm Offord has officially been sworn in as an MSP for the West of Scotland. This is just the beginning for #ReformUK in Scotland and the start of a real opposition and alternative to the SNP after 18 years of failure by the Tories and Labour. 🩵🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@5liveSport The fact he says "The footage was inconclusive" says everything. The same footage the referee looked at. They've guessed, therefore nothing is clear and obvious 🤦🏻‍♂️

@JimSpenceDundee Yes. I thought it was a pen for the elbow in the same incident, but the handball is undeniable. I’m old enough to remember Hearts getting a double ricochet handball penalty against Celtic in injury time in a Cup Semifinal. Beattie scored the winning spot kick. Hard candy happens.

I ask only one question. Does that penalty get awarded at the other end at that stage in the game?
