We’d all like our governments to represent us, the people. Unfortunately the method we use to elect our governments doesn’t deliver representation that matches the diversity of views found in the electorate. We can fix this by changing to the single transferable vote (STV) form of proportional representation (PR), known as PR-STV, which we call the gold standard of electoral systems. You can help by joining us and by voting for political parties that support PR-STV.
If you are a newcomer, learn about the gold standard for electoral systems and its benefits, the principles of electoral system design, and our policy recommendations. Our library offers definitions and explanations on a variety of terms. Interested supporters are invited to join.
