A system where the government is chosen by 33% of voters has no legitimate claim to be democracy, that is, rule by the people. | ||||||||

This is not an actionable claim. What are you supposed to do in a multi-party system if nobody wins a majority and voter turnout is 60%? Just have anarchy until someone wins an outright majority? | ||||||||
