WRONG !!! We can have a situation, as is common in many of the democratic countries of the west, not to mention England, where the party elected did NOT have the majority of the votes, it just had more than any other single party. Often not even that. England often has 'minority governments'. Democracy ? Dem's a Crazy idea ! /anton aylward
