What sort of voting system normally is most likely to lead to a two-party political system?
I realize this is a standard question on someone's test, but in reality first-past-the-post voting does not always produce two-party systems. Although concern over splitting the electorate tends to consolidate parties in such a system, resulting in two major parties, there are usually minor parties waiting in the wings to become one of the major parties. In Britain, this role was played by the Liberal party, who grew in the 1980s to become a serious voice in British politics and held the balance of power after the 2010 election. In Canada, one of the major parties, the Conservatives, were practically wiped out in the 1993 election and a regional party, the Bloc Québecois, became the second largest party, and again, in 2011, the New Democratic Party, a third party, overtook the Liberal party to become the second party in Parliament.

What does voting mean?
A formal expression of preference for a candidate for office or for a proposed resolution of an issue. Voting is also a process.

In the USA, the citizen is escorted to a voting machine and a curtain is drawn so the voting is confidential.
