What if everyone had 2 votes like in the MMP system and the voted them both the same way...
Here's the result of tonight's election (CBC results @ 11:46pm EST):
Here's what it would have looked like if everyone had a riding vote and a party list vote and they had voted them the same way (for the party of the candidate they voted for). A bit unrealistic, but still interesting:
The legislature would have looked quite different, a minority government for the Liberals with strong opposition representation by the Conservatives, the NDP and the Green party, more importantly much lower wasted vote.
The xls spreadsheet I used to calculate it
Certainly something to think about...
