59 percent of what number?

Strategic voting is a bit of a perversion, I agree. I think it simply reflects a fundamental weakness in our two-party-winner-take-all de facto electoral system. This system is not in place everywhere. And there are a number of other systems, just as democratic, that offer a what I believe to be a better result, specifically proportional representation.
