STV. Who wants it?
Well it's coming and I for one welcome it. In STV you rank the candidates in order of preference. If you like just a few candidates then you give ranks 1, 2, 3, ... to your preferred people and don't rank the others. If you really like First Past The Post then just vote for your choice with a '1' and leave the rest blank.
Australia used a stupid variant where you had to rank all the candidates. This meant that people complained that they were forced by law to vote for people they didn't want. But just because Australians messed up the system does not mean that we shouldn't do it properly.
The real result of this change is that it's possible for a stranger to become elected to the Council. Of course electioneering is hard work but who wants to elect a lazy time server?
