winner-take-all system  

Definición

  • IN A WINNER-TAKE-ALL system, the goal of an election is to pick a winner, and the winner takes all. This is in contrast to proportional representation, where the goal is to choose a legislature that will mirror the preferences of voters as closely as possible.
