Multi-member districts are electoral districts that elect more than one representative to a legislative body. This system allows voters to choose multiple candidates, often from the same party, which can lead to a more proportional representation of diverse political views within a community.
In contrast to single-member districts, where one representative is elected, multi-member districts can enhance voter choice and encourage collaboration among elected officials. They are commonly used in various electoral systems, including some forms of proportional representation and mixed electoral systems, to better reflect the electorate's preferences.
