Translation
The more 'second votes' a party receives in a federal election, the more …
- A fewer first votes it can have.
- B more direct candidates of the party enter the parliament.
- C greater is the risk of having to form a coalition.
- D more seats the party receives in the parliament. ✓ Correct answer
Explanation
The second vote (Zweitstimme) decides how many seats each party gets in the Bundestag, so more second votes means more seats. The first vote only picks the local direct candidate and does not affect a party's total seat count.
Tips
- Second vote sets party seats, first vote picks the local candidate, that split is the whole logic here.
- A coalition risk depends on how all parties do together, not on one party's vote share.
