[BrookerT6666]

Parties fret it; voters get it! BC-STV!

[gerrykirk]

Great tune, try to improve the video quality. Go STV!!

[cyclingzealot]

I wasn't being a prick. I was trying to get you to tell me why you voted against it. You're avoiding my question.

[cybertooth49]

Is getting on an executive a quick way to the top?

Informing me is not your responibility, but mine, and being a prick about isn't going to help you, or me.

Please leave me alone now.

[cyclingzealot]

I'm on the executive of the Ottawa chapter for Fair Vote Canada.

I was wondering what were your reasons for voting against it. Informing you is my responsibility. :-)

[cybertooth49]

This would have been worth the time before the election, but I don't see the point in it now. Any information you would want is available online. You informing yourself is not my responsibility.

[cyclingzealot]

That doesn't sound very informed.

What are your arguments against STV?

[cybertooth49]

The kind that the province did in order to deny STV the opportunity to completely screw up our province 4 months ago.

[cyclingzealot]

Why, what kind of research did you do?

[cybertooth49]

STV is a pile of crap. Do your research.

[TheVanGirl]

No it's like you have a team of three class presidents, and if you vote for the unpopular guy who has no hope, your vote goes to your second choice, who does get in.

[TheVanGirl]

The stability comes from the fact that the politicians have to work together on the legislation more. Now, whenever the government changes, they throw away whatever the last people did, which is a waste of time and money. Besides lots of countries with proportional representation have majority govts and the others are run by majority coalitions that people know about it advance.
