Part 2/8:
Focus on the EU: The analysis centers solely on elections within the European Union.
Defining Election Types: Only national parliamentary elections and second-round presidential elections are recognized, while state elections are disregarded barring exceptions like the EU Parliament elections.
Establishing a Point System: A unique point system categorized victories into Far Left, Left-Leaning, Centre, Right-Leaning, and Far Right camps. A win adds a point, while a political flip (change of ruling party) results in a minus point for the losing party.
