A significant limitation of FPTP is that it can waste votes for losing candidates and create disproportionate results. Votes for losing candidates in a constituency don't contribute to representation, and parties with geographically concentrated support may win fewer seats than their national vote share warrants. This can lead to situations where a party forms government without winning the popular vote nationally.
