Maybe. But I really-really wish we had Australia’s STV system here in the USA.

- JadeNB 8y agoWhat is Australia's STV system? I went Googling a bit, and the only quick hit was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STV_(TV_station) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STV_(TV_station) , which seems unlikely to be what you meant.
- khr 8y agoerentz was probably referring to the single transferable vote system (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_transferable_vote https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_transferable_vote), which uses a ranked ballot in elections and results in relatively proportional representation. CGP grey explains it pretty well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8XOZJkozfI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8XOZJkozfI
- JadeNB 8y agoThanks! That makes much more sense than a TV station.
