The way the parties' work I mean
Italy is about noise. Germany is about strategy
The polls show it
The AFD have very small spikes
But gradually grow
Sweden still is in coalition negotiations
Ik and it's hilarious
Electarol reform doesnβt work
Wdym by Electoral Reform?
What about single transferable vote
No
Would work simmilarly to first past the post but eliminate the need for tactical voting
FIRST Past the post
Is fair most votes is the winner
Cos if you vote for a small party that dosent stand a chance you're not helping the main party on the other side of the political spectrum
The problem is that in other electoral systems, extremist parties grow easily
Europe is an example of that
Aye
@HM - King of UK + Commonwealth America use a first past the post style system and hillary got the most votes but Trump won
That can happen and itβs still fair
STV dosent have that problem because you continue giving votes to second choices until a party has a majority
How is that fair?
It had happened four times before
Trump got a landslide victory without the popular vote
It happened before dosent make it fair...
It's effectively making some peoples vote worth more than others
Bush jr did it in 2000 and hardly anyone complained
Well they shouldve complained
Cos it's bullshit whoever it happens to
Oh yes they should of complained the fact is oh no they didnβt
And the point is?
The system is broken no matter how much people complain
It happened in the uk Election in 1951
I get your point
Conservative won a overall majority labour got most votes
It's not my problem that people didn't complain back then
Poor Attlee
I wasn't alive
But I'm alive now and I'm complaining now
There where people alive in 2000 who are complaining now
OK but I'm not one of them
