constituencies as aforesaid shall be allocated between the contesting
parties in accordance with the results of the voting throughout
Guyana in favour of the lists of the contesting parties in such a
manner that the proportion that the number of seats allocated to each
party, when added to the number of members identified with that
party's lists elected in the geographical constituencies, bears to the
number of votes cast in favour of that party is as nearly as may be
the same for each party, thus minimising the level of
disproportionality between the percentages of votes earned by
parties and the percentages of seats allocated to parties in the
Assembly.
(3)
Subject to the provisions of this Constitution, Parliament may make
provision (a)
(i)
for the registration of electors;
(ii)
for the manner in which lists of candidates shall be prepared,
including the provision in a list of the names of a sufficient
number of candidates to enable any vacancies to be filled
under subparagraph (vii), and which manner shall allow
voters to be sure which individuals they are electing to the
National Assembly;
(iii)
for the manner in which the number of seats to be allocated
to each list shall be calculated in order to give effect to the
provisions of
paragraph (1) or paragraph (2), as the case may be;
(iv)
for the combination of lists of candidates for the purpose of
the allocation of seats (but not for the purpose of voting);
