NATIONAL SUMMARY OF VOTES AND SEATS
====================================================================
Greek electoral law requires that the party winning a plurity of
votes be awarded a majority of seats in the Voule. This involves
some distortion of the proportionality of the result, as shown in
the following table. Parties must poll 3% of the national vote to
gain representation. Votes and seats are compared with those gained
in the 2000 elections.

GREECE                     9,897,626 voters, 7,571,601 (76.5%) voted
