One critique of the current legislative voting scheme is that it is "serialized" (votes happen one by one) rather than "parallel" (all proposals are considered and voted on at once, and the best one is chosen). Thus, sometimes [[rated method]]<nowiki/>s or [[Condorcet methods]] are suggested for legislative votes.
One feature of many legislatures is that a [[supermajority]] of legislators can exclude (remove) certain legislators from the legislature. This is usually rarely invoked. One criticism of [[Proportional representation]] is that it can allow fringe minorities representation; this legislative exclusion feature can address that concern to some extent, though it has been criticized as well.
