Submission Content
Although I have sent you my thoughts before I am writing you again in reaction to the latest development in the process of the Citizens' Assembly, namely the last round of presentations by 9 chosen people. I am concerned about the fact that there are an equal number who address the mixed proportional representation [MMP] system as there are to address the single transferable vote [STV] system, while over 70% has expressed preference for the mixed proportional representation voting system and only about 4% who prefer the single transferable vote system. As well I regret the fact that there are only 2 women under those 9 presenters.
 
So I would like to state my preference for the mixed proportional representation and hope that you, the citizens assembly, will come forward with what the majority of the participants have expressed, namely mixed proportional representation, as the desired voting system.

Thank you for your good work.
