The Federal Constitution guarantees at least one seat for each canton. In the cantons entitled to more than one seat because of their population, the people have elected their deputies by a system of proportional representation since 1919; that means that the number of seats held by the parties in the Council is roughly equivalent to the share of votes cast for them.
