Seats to Votes Distortion
Seats-to-Votes Distortion: The seats-to votes distortion measures the extent to which one party wins a greater percentage of seats than votes and the other party wins a smaller percentage of seats than votes.  It is determined by adding the percentage distortion for each party and dividing by two.  For example, if Democrats won 10% more seats than votes and Republicans 6% fewer seats than votes, the distortion would be 8%.
