    The majority of experts who testified at the ERRE committee gave evidence that proportional representation was the best option for meeting the committee's goals. No one disputed this. That was the consensus. Further, prior to the committee meetings, the members had meetings with Canadians across the country. Most Canadians that the committee members met with cited PR as their preference for electoral reform.

    The Liberal members of the committee, however, ignored the evidence and, in the end, chose to inexplicably advocate for Alternative Vote (which, besides a different ballot, is basically the same as FPTP, in that it is a single member riding winner-take-all system --> winner take all is the problem). This led to Maryam Monsef's idiotic ridicule of the Gallagher Index. Ignoring evidence and ridiculing science is often seen with right wing parties. Under no circumstances should either the GPC or the NDP partake in such nonsense.

  15. "Wyoming’s bill has the potential to be the next great innovation in American government. PR could improve the representative nature of our state governments and allow voters to express their preferences more effectively on local issues. While there is no one-size-fits-all solution for a country as large as the U.S., other states would be wise to learn from Wyoming’s foray into this promising territory."

    If #Wyoming gets #ProportionalRepresentation before #California we're going to flip out. Still cool though. #LaboratoriesOfDemocracy #ElectionReform

  16. Great interview with our friends at More Equitable Democracy about election reform. "Too many times we have seen top-down campaigns. Some politically savvy organization says, 'This is the right solution. How do we get people of color on board? Let's hire an outreach person!' People of color are not stupid, and they want to be part of the decisions being made. "

  17. #AndyBurnham does NOT support #ProportionalRepresentation #PR. 😡

    Burnham supports #SupplementaryVote, also known as #AlternativeVote #AV, which is NOT a proportional system

    And he will NOT scrap the current #FirstPastThePost #FPTP before the next general election #GE2029. So #ReformUK could win a huge overall majority on 30% of votes.

    That makes a vote for #Burnham pointiess. He's a #Blairite who won't even introduce fair votes. 😡

    There's no point to Burnham. Reject him, #Makerfield!
