If a party wins 45% of the popular vote, it'd be entitled to 45% of the seats under the basic concept of proportional representation. Party-List PR is where you vote for a party (closed-list) or number candidates on a list (open-list). Additional-Member PR or Mixed-Member PR is where you get two votes, one for your electorate, the other for a party. Single [Transferable] Vote is where you rank candidates and they have to achieve a quota based on votes and vacant seats in multi-member constituencies in order to be elected. The 1998 Jenkins Commission recommended Alternative Vote Top-Up as an alternative to the UK's current First-Past-The-Post (a.k.a. [plurality] winner, [winner-take-all]) voting system. Political parties are less likely to achieve majorities in legislative assemblies under PR than they would under First-Past-the-Post plurality voting. A few political parties crying for PR include the UK's Liberal Democrats and Canada's NDP (New Democratic Party). (And another side note: Even Jello Biafra, when he was trying to become the U.S. [Green Party's] 2000 presidential candidate, wanted to convert the U.S. Congress from the current two-party [FPTP] system over to PR as he said in his speech to party faithful that year.) ❋ Obscure Anomaly (2006)
