The democratic Alliance received 3.9percent of the vote. If the Alliance fails to make 4 percent the socialists would stand an even better Chance of emerging with an absolute majority of More than 50 percent. Some 40 minor parties shared about 12percent of the vote. Those seats will be divided among the parties that cleared the 4 percent threshold.
