Tangential point but Germany's parliament has a 5% public vote threshold for parties to enter parliament (some exceptions apply).
According to current polls, that means between of 6%-9% of votes (for minor parties) will end up without parliamentary representation (5% at the last federal election).
NB: The number of not represented people is of course much higher, even discounting non-voters and underage citizens, since most(all?) foreign residents don't have the right to vote in federal elections.
