Given the difficulty some people in Florida have with what seems to me to be a not very complicated ballot, what confidence can we have that people will understand how to vote in a more complex system? In addition, why is it that some people seem to feel that if the person they happened to vote for does not win their vote has somehow not been heard? Is victory is the only acceptable alternative?

Plurality voting is not a good way to make important decisions. It is a fast way and a simple way. But given what we are going through I suggest what at first appears to be simple and fast is more complex and slow in the long run. I would rather have a different way of voting that allowed me to feel more like my voice is heard than our current system allows. <(���)> ---------------- This message was posted to the Winona Online Democracy Project.
