Single transferable voting for Hamilton City Council.
Hamilton City Council is considering moving to STV voting. Have your say at www.yourcityelections.co.nz...
I think STV helps to build a sense of connection with councillors. While voters will not necessarily get their first pick onto council, they will almost inevitably get people elected who were just a little lower among their preferences. It removes the need for strategic voting. I often vote for people who I think are probably outside chances. In this situation, a vote for other candidates is effectively a vote against my favoured candidate so I vote for that candidate only. STV would enable me to participate more fully. I could rank all candidates knowing that if my favoured candidate is knocked out, at least my next rankings will count.
