One way of evaluating legislatures is by identifying what percentage of the votes were cast for candidates that won an election. In First-Past-the-Post systems, this is all votes cast for the winning candidate in each constituency. In the Single Transferable Vote, one quota is counted for each surplus distributed, plus all votes for winning candidates in the final count. In proportional representation systems, we count votes for parties who won any seats in that constituency. This differs from wasted vote because it is still possible for votes to be wasted that were cast for the winning candidate. A successful wasted voter is still happy because they get representation.
