Respecto a la regulación de los sistemas electorales de corte proporcional, se propone que la ingeniería constitucional debe ir dirigida a resguardar la relación entre representantes-representados, cumpliendo dos objetivos principales: 1. Adecuar los elementos del sistema electoral para procurar un marco de cercanía entre representantes y representados y 2. Cumplir con el principio de proporcionalidad, es decir, lograr una relación lo más perfecta posible entre los votos emitidos hacia un partido político y los escaños obtenidos por este. El presente texto plantea pautas hacia las cuales debe dirigirse cada modulador de los sistemas electorales proporcionales para cumplir con los objetivos expuestos. Además, referido al objetivo 2, se presentan índices de medición que permiten valorar la salud de los modelos proporcionales de elección de legisladores

Adjust the elements of the electoral system to obtain a context of closeness between representatives and those being represented and 2. Comply with the principle of proportionality/ That is, achieve a relationship as perfect as possible between the votes cast for a political party and the seats obtained by said political party. This work presents guidelines to be taken into account in order for proportional electoral systems to fulfill the objectives described above. In addition to what was said in objective 2, this work presents measuring indexes that allow the assessment of the shape of proportional models of election of congress members
