Submission Content
I hope the Citizen's Assembly will consider the MMP [mixed member proportional] electoral system as a better alternative to the present system than STV [the single transferable vote], which is a complex system that requires you to rank a bunch of candidates as to your first, second, third, and subsequent choice. Also, your second and third choices are weighed using a complex formula that requires a computer to count the ballots and find out who wins.
