国民民主党は、衆院選挙制度の見直しを巡る自民党案の受け入れを、「穏健な多党制による連立政権」(玉木雄一郎代表)の実現に向けた布石としたい考えだ。比例代表について「統一名簿方式」を導入し、議席配分方式を「修正サンラグ式」に変更することが、中小政党にとって有利に働くと判断した。ただ、見返りに比例定数の31減を容認したことで、野党間の亀裂は拡大している。

比例31削減、自維国が合意 今国会に法案共同提出へ―衆院選見直し
統一名簿方式は、異なる政党による比例名簿の一本化が可能。修正サンラグ式も、現行の「ドント式」に比べて中小政党が議席を得やすくなる。国民民主の古川元久代表代行は10月28日、自民案への賛成を決定後の記者会見で「二大政党を志向する現行制度が、多党化を前提としたルールに変わる」と意義を強調した。
国民民主は、2029年までを「政権準備期間」と位置付けるが、現状は衆参両院で計53議席にとどまる。党幹部は「多党制が政権獲得の前提だ。二大政党制で政権は取れない」と指摘。今回の制度見直しが、政権戦略の「一里塚」になるとの認識を示す。
統一名簿方式は、国民民主がかねて主張してきたものだ。これを取り入れることで、国民民主側に将来の連立入りを促す自民側の思惑も透ける。実際、党幹部からは早くも「自・国の選挙調整に使える」との声が漏れる。
先の特別国会では、与党が比例45減の法案を提出し、審議を強行。議席減の影響が大きい野党各党はそろって成立阻止に動いた。
しかし、与党と国民民主は今国会に比例31減の法案を提出し、成立を図る方針。これに対し、民主改革の会の落合貴之政調会長は「国会の緊張感がなくなる」と懸念。共産党の田村智子委員長は「横暴と戦うつもりがあるのか」と批判する。
