Caring about people downvoting your comment is very Redditor of you too.

I guess most other governments would never need a system like that given I don't imagine there's any other country in the world that is made up of as many States as the US.
We have an interesting electoral system in NZ called MMP which is essentially a first across the post system so even if a party gets more votes than anyone else, it they didn't get enough to cross the post/finish line, they don't win and so a coalition can be formed by smaller parties that got less votes to get across the finish line and therefore the country is then run by multiple political parties.
