Submission Content
It is my belief after visiting New Zealand and seeing their electoral system there that we need to get into the 21st Century and realize that our current voting system no longer serves us. The right and the will of the ordinary citizen in our system as it stands has produced a climate of appathy amonst voters that causes them not to vote. With the MMP System these people will see that their vote can and will count again and will be more apt to cast their vote again. The STV system is out of date.
