Submission Content
I thank you for doing the research on Electoral Reform. Myself as well as many of the people I know are discouraged about voting. The election news on the radio bores us. The mainstream politicians rarely represent my political views. I favour a mixed member proportional [MMP] system like the one in New Zealand. Then my vote might have an influence in the way the government is formed. I think that in general it would decrease voter apathy.

The parliamentary sessions seem to the public like noisy rhetoric bantering. Hopefully coalition governments would help parliament to weave ideas into meaningful legislation,

I’m glad to have an opportunity to express my views
