multi-dimensional: I'm going to make a submission on the MMP review

Thursday, April 26, 2012

Here's what I need to think about:

The 5 percent party vote threshold for a party to be eligible for allocation of list seats;
The one electorate seat threshold for a party to be eligible for allocation of list seats;
The effects of population change on the ratio of electorate seats to list seats;
The effect of a party’s candidates winning more seats than the party would be entitled;
The capacity of a person to be both a constituency candidate and a list candidate;
A party’s ability to determine the order of candidates on its party list and the inability of voters to rank list candidates in order of preference;
The capacity of a list MP to stand as a candidate in a by-election;
