We could save a lot of expense, effort and have better election results as we would not have the dismally small turn-out for run-off elections. There is no reason not to do this.

To enhance democracy, it must be paired with a ballot more accessible to more parties. Our access requirement should be among those of the most progressive states, not the most machine controlled.

I want to know that my vote counts, and that there is an end to any questionable voting practices. Please extend this pilot program.

Not only does it save money, but one can vote their conscience without fear of wasting their vote. I urge all concerned to work for this valuable program. And thank you to all who are keeping it before the public and the legislature. Bravo for your good work.

the opportunity to participate. IRV allows
more choices and insures a popular candidate
will be selected. More people would come
out to vote and the costs would be reduced.

]]> Thu, 12 Jun 2008 08:42:39 UTC 3740657 George H. Hamil [Signature #111] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/3740235?utm_medium=rss I believe it is important for IRV to be expanded to include multi-seat elections. In Black Mountain, a well organized minority can usually effectively control elections by having only the same number of candidates as seats. Then, the more candidates there are, the greater the likelihood that their candidates will win, as there is no runoff.

]]> Thu, 12 Jun 2008 07:06:12 UTC 3740235 Mr. Kenneth Ashe [Signature #110] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/3739937?utm_medium=rss Thu, 12 Jun 2008 05:38:32 UTC 3739937 Martin Duckman [Signature #109] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/3735934?utm_medium=rss IRV is good sense in every regard. Not only is it more economical than a conventional runoff, but it assures a high degree of confidence that the voting outcome will fairly reflect a consensus of the electorate.

IRV could eliminate the need for this extra day and wasteful spending.

To hold a runoff by conventional means is needlessly expensive and counter-productive, given the normal miniscule turnout. IRV the common-sense solution to this dilemma.
