Congressional apportionment 2006

As the 2010 election campaign begins, a look back to 2006. The following are the number of seats awarded to each party in the 48th Congress, along with the percentage of the popular vote received in the election held on April 15, 2006.

Amrita Party.........................88 seats (26.42% of popular vote)
National Union......................70 (21.02%)
Chakra Party.........................48 (14.41%)
Green Party...........................24 (7.21%)
Progressive Labor.................19 (5.71%)
Lilith Party............................16 (4.8%)
Libertarian............................15 (4.5%)
Jungle Party..........................12 (3.6%)
Social Democrats..................11 (3.3%)
Chastity Party....................... 6 (1.8%)
Freedom Party...................... 5 (1.5%)
Family Values Party............. 4 (1.2%)
Personal Responsibility........ 4 (1.2%)
Rationalist Party................... 2 (0.6%)
others (*see below)............... 9 (2.7%)
* One seat each: Alpha-Omega Party, Reconstruction Party, Victory and Peace Party, Lazurian Independent Party, Peoples' Party, Popular Front of Pottsylvania, New Age Party, Christian Heritage Party, National Democratic Union.

Since the Social Democrats and Progressive Labor merged for all practical purposes during the 48th Congress, and have made the merger official for 2010, the combined party holds 30 seats, placing the real leftists ahead of the fake leftists hiding their conservatism behind an environmentalist facade (i.e. the Greens).
