This week I have learned that Malta and Ireland are both using the Single Transferable Vote method in national elections. I knew that e.g. Northern Ireland are doing it, but I was only aware of Australia doing it at the sovereign level.

@NicelyManifest I am annoyed with the voting system.
D'Hondt is better in many ways than #FPTP, but it gives far too much power to parties and it creates #WastedVotes. This year, the wasted votes have been for Labour and the Greens, handing ~4 seats to #ReformUK.
Much better to use #STV, as in Ireland, in Northern Ireland, and in Scottish local elections. There are no wasted votes in STV.
But I like the result. #PlaidCymru will be fresh, and I like minority governments. It keeps them honest.

@TheComfortableSpotPodcast Sadly the UK was never offered proportional reprentation. The #AlternativeVote offered a decade ago was in many ways worse than #FPTP.
#STV is the best system, and it was used for the university constituencies 1918—1950, but sadly not made universal.

@John_Loader I'm Irish, so I'm just looking at Wales finally getting normal constituency sizes, tho with a second-rate electoral system. #STV is much better: less party control, more open to new entrants.

Santa Monica should ditch its plurality at-large council elections and come into compliance with the California Voting Rights Act. But winner-take-all district elections aren't the only possible solution. Proportional #RankedChoiceVoting gives minority groups of all kinds the best opportunity to elect representatives of their choice, avoids spoilers and wasted votes, and ensures the large majority of voters actually get to choose a winner.

@petealexharris This sort of calculation is based on assumptions of how others will vote. It's an anti-democratic insanity of a system, a reminder of why Scotland should adopt #STV.
But on the maths, so long as the SNP wins more constituency seats than the Greens do, d'Hondt means that an SNP list seat needs a lot more voters than Green list seats. This isn't opinion; it's maths.

Why is #CliveLewis?
The #LabourParty MP for Norwich South is a good critic of #neoliberalism, and of public alienation from politics. He is right that proportional representation could open up politics, tho like most English critics of #FPTP he seems unaware of the importance of #STV.
But all he seems to do about it is 3 or 4 articles per year in #TheGuardian and a few TV appearances.
Radical change requires sustained hard work to build movements. Clive isn't that.

#FPTP voting is obsolete.
But conflating the first sensible alternative to it #STV )single transferable vote_ with #proportionalRepresentation is unhelpful.Most of us will have a first choice, but many of us will not get that choice elected. But most of us will have a second choice and if pressed could manage to rank the last two parties in order of worst.
And the satisfaction of having your second choice, not your 5th choice, elected is at least moderate.
-
@ChrisMayLA6 And the reason UKLabour are out of time is #FPTP.
In 2007–11, #FiannaFail drove Ireland's economy over a cliff edge. #FF lost 58% of its vote share at Ireland's 2011 general election, but #STV ensured that #FF was not wiped out. It partially rebuilt, and by 2024 FF was again the largest party.
But #FPTP is far more brutal to losers. Labour's likely fall to under 20% of the vote will leave it as a tiny rump, too weak to rebuild.

@bthalpin The history of Irish creative use of #PRSTV is a bit of a chicken-and-egg issue. To what extent did decline of #FiannaFail and #FineGael drive more creative use of #STV, and how much did clever use of STV hurt #FFFG?
I think it's actually the same phenomenon. For decades, Irish voters were mostly happy with the choice of FF or FG. Later, new political goals drove voters to new parties and new tactics.

CW: UK politics
Was on a #makevotesmatter call a couple of days ago when someone I admire said he only switched to supporting #ProportionalRepresenttion when he realised you didn't have to use #multiMemberConstituencies. He disliked this because of less local representation. As an #STV fan, this triggered some soul searching.
I've come to the conclusion that the constituency link requirement is bogus. Effectively, it is telling voters before they even vote that their most important issue is local representation. Clearly, that is an important consideration but I bet given the choice most voters would rather be represented by a like minded person than someone who lives near by. For instance, I've frequently considered writing to my MP. Only done it once because 99% of the time he has clearly demonstrated that he opposes what I want, so he ain't going to advocate for me... -

I just learned that the #UTAW trade union supports voting reform to another non-preferential voting system, rather than #STV which is both preferential and proportional. They want more second guessing, and less power for voters.
I'd been considering resigning my membership for a while, but this might be the final straw.

‘Criminal Record’ Producer STV Studios Hit By “Significant Commissioning Market Deterioration”

The Otago Regional Council is switching from from first past the post, to STV (single transferable vote) for this year’s council elections. This aligns with the DCC system which has been working well for years.
Prof Janine Hayward has some good advice.
"After first past the post (FPP), there was a tendency among some people to rank every single candidate on the ballot sheet, but really that’s unnecessary."
⬆️ Yep. That was me, ranking climate deniers at number 40-something then being required to rank every other candidate in between.
"Put simply, if you don’t like the candidate, don’t rank them."
Amen.

its also an indictment of the decline in public service #broadcasting that #STV (which used to be a European leader in #BroadcastEngineering as recently as the late 1990s/early 2000s) could only release a vertical #YouTube video and not even show the televisor in full action..

And whichever petition gets the most votes, put a bill in Parliament, pass it, task Elections Canada to retool the fucking electoral system.
Or, more expensively, have a national referendum. One question, three choices of electoral system.

One of the 1 of 200 hosts asks Marx whether Canada has considered MMP. Apparently they have, but the liberals and conservatives keep blocking it.
I recommend citizens who want proportional representation in their countries campaign for STV, not MMP. I say that having voted in elections using both MMP (NZ general elections since 1996) and STV (some local body elections).
