Answer:

they are winner-takes-all elections

Step-by-step explanation:

Representation should be given to the candidates who earn the most votes in winner-take-all voting systems (such as plurality and two-round runoffs). Everyone gets to vote, and the top vote-getters win. In addition, a candidate that succeeds is likely to share many of his or her constituents' beliefs and values.
