Abstract:	We tackle the problem of simulating seat- and vote-shares for a party system of a given size. We show how these shares can be generated using unordered and ordered Dirichlet distributions. We show that a distribution with a mean vector given by the rule described in Taagepera and Allik (2006) fits real world data almost as well as a saturated model where there is a parameter for each rank/system size combination.
