Three apportionment problems are addressed that are of current interest in Germany and Switzerland: the assignment of committee seats in a way that preserves the parliamentary majority-minority relation, the introduction of minimum restrictions in a two-ballot system to accomodate the direct seats won by the constituency ballots, and biproportional apportionment methods for systems with multiple districts so as to achieve proportionality between party votes as well as between district populations.
