I believe the New Zealand system of voting, mixed proportional
representation [MMP], is the only way that we minority voters can
have our voices heard. More people will come out and
vote believing that their vote will be counted. [1 page]

I believe the New Zealand system of voting, mixed proportional
representation [MMP], is the only way that we minority voters can
have our voices heard. The first past the post system only fills
the needs of the multi-national corporations and their over-stuffed
cronies. All that system does is clear the way for the exploitation
of the people and the planet in general. There is no thought given
to the quality of life of the working people. I believe the mixed
proportional representation will allow more of the voices of the
minority parties who speak for the working people. It will also
encourage more people to come out and vote believing that their
vote will be counted.
