      The UK’s versions of PR do too. We literally have in the UK right now:

      • STV elections for the Northern Irish assembly and Scottish local government; and

      • AV+ elections for the Scottish and Welsh Parliaments.

      Both are ways of delivering proportionality and geographic representation at the same time (though STV is vastly superior - AV+ delivers proportionality by having two categories of representatives, whereas STV has both features incorporated into a single system).
