US Cities Show Clear Majorities for Electoral Reform
Fri, 11/10/2006 - 04:00 — admin
Victoria, BC - Final US local election results, released yesterday,
show the clean sweep continues for STV in North America. Following BC's
58% vote to approve STV in 2005, four US jurisdictions approved a
change to an STV or similar voting system this week.
Minneapolis voted 65% in favor of adopting STV for all their
municipal elections, including their elected council, parks board,
library board, and estimate and taxation board.
