My "low vote total wins" proposal was only a little tounge-in-cheek. The primary reason I proposed it, or something similar, is to get away from the strategic voting schemes that the cumulative vote plan encourages. Cumulative voting, proportional voting etc are far more popular in some other countries and in poly-sci classes than in most of the US. Are we going to try to change the voting process in the freestate to this same schema?? If so, count me out. If not, then why are we using it now??
