My reading, and the data that I have collected from friends and
family in New Zealand, suggest that, of all the electoral systems,
MMP (that is, the method utilized in New
Zealand) is that which I would desire.
I would like to see an end to adversarial, egocentric, politics
where the goal is power and influence.
I would like to see respect, consensus, debate, where the goal
is to be in service to the electorate without commercial,
ideological, or personal agendas.
