Contrary to SMDs, multi-member districts allow for balancing the party ticket since several candidates will be elected there and, consequently, nominated on the parties’ lists. Party gatekeepers, thus, may have good reasons for introducing women on their lists: It may not only be seen as a strategy for attracting female voters, but also as a mechanism to represent various internal party interests and, thus, to strengthen the party’s coherence. Moreover, integrating women on the party list may be considered as a matter of equity, particularly if there is an active women’s branch inside the party and a strong women’s movement in the civil society.
