--- One main difference is that in the parliamentary system the individual votes for a party, the members of which vote for the prime minister. In the US democratic system the individual votes for a specific candidate. The candidate who receives the most votes in one state, Wyoming for example, then receives the number of electoral votes designated to that state. The candidate with the most electoral votes wins. EX: Bush v. Gore 2000 Bush won the state of Wyoming because the majority of people in Wyoming voted for him. He then received Wyoming's 3 electoral votes. Because Bush had the most electoral votes he won the election. Hope this helps!
