It's a republic.

But even if all the people who could vote, did vote, and say it was split 50/50 between the two, neither would still get much more than a third of the population voting for them.

I suppose one could require citizens to vote.
Curious, the countries that do. Not exactly what I'd call good democracies, except maybe for Austrailia.
