Relectoral (version 0.1.0)

concentracion: Voting Dimension Index. Concentration of votes (electoral and parliamentary)

Description

Another very important indicator of the party system is the concentration of votes, which indicates what percentage of votes or seats are taken by the two parties that have the largest number of votes. The formula used to calculate this indicator is as follows:

$$concentration=p_1+p_2$$

The maximum value that this indicator takes is 1, so the closer it is to 1, the more concentrated the vote is.
