I am concerned about the Assembly is going to
recommend a change to our voting system that only serves to confuse
and destroy what little democracy there is left in our voting
system. I am in favor of the Mixed Member Proportional [MMP], not
the Single Transferable Vote [STV]. There is too much for the
public to try to understand and too much distrust of elected
representatives for the citizens to believe that a complicated
system such as STV will improve representation or the quality of
elected MLAs.
