What political systems use approval voting right now?
None, though some professional societies do.
That’s what I thought. At least some countries do use AV-like or proportional-representation systems in practice. (Australia uses AV in the House, proportional per state in the Senate.)
If I get it right, what you are looking for ist http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumulative_voting and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panachage, here in Hessen, a state of germany, I did it last week.
No, cumulative voting is the same system but in multi-member, rather than single-member, constituencies. The system being referred to is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approval_voting
