Also voted in the mail-in ballot on Proportional Representation yesterday... then got drunk listening to coverage of the referendum...
Question 1: I voted to keep the First Past The Post system as it's the system that tends to elect majority governments that get stuff done...
Question 2: I ranked the 3 pro rep systems in the following order: 1) mixed member proportional, which is used in other countries... 2) rural-urban proportional, which, as a whole, hasn't been used anywhere, but it's a combination of mixed member proportional and single transferable vote, both of which are used in other countries... 3) dual member proportional, which was only recently developed in Canada and is not in use anywhere...
