SUBMISSIONS FROM THE PUBLIC

Members of the public sent to the Assembly a total of 1,603 public submissions during the 13 months ended 27 September 2004. And you can access them all lower down on this page.

Incidentally, the numbers on the submissions appear to show that there are 1,669 of them. After allowing for blanks, duplications and those submissions that were later withdrawn by the people who sent them, the real total is 1,603. Unfortunately, we cannot renumber the submissions to reflect that.

If a posted submission is dated after 27 September, that date refers to the date the submission was processed and posted to the website, not the date it was received. 

To help you navigate through the 1,603 submissions received from the public, here are:
  1. An introduction to the submissions, available as a Word document (40KB) or as a PDF document (110KB).
  2. A link to the View Submissions page, where you can read and/or search 1,603 submissions
  3. A complete list of the submissions and their abstracts, available as an Excel spreadsheet (472KB) or as a PDF (348KB)
  4. A guide to the longer submissions (i.e., 80 submissions that run four or more pages in length). This guide is available as a Word document (36KB) or as a PDF file (96KB).
  5. A list of the 80 longer submissions, indexed by electoral system and including abstracts. This list is available as an Excel spreadsheet (40KB) or as a PDF item (90KB).

CALLAHAN-1026

I support a Mixed Member Proportional (MMP) voting system and I do not support a Single Transferrable Vote (STV) system. [2 pages]

CALLIHOO-0210

I support a Mixed Proportional Representation [MMP] electoral system because when people vote, their vote should count and because when parties receive a percentage of the vote, they deserve fair representation of that support. [1 page]

CALLIS-0315

I support Mixed Member Proportional [MMP] voting for BC. This is fair, and will help reduce voter apathy. Young adults are discouraged about voting, until they hear about this possibility. This is the best option, better than STV. [1 page]
