I have to disagree. It's a list of options, albeit taller than a sheet of A4. Instructions: put a cross next to your choice. If that ballot paper is confusing

If that ballot paper is confusing then you shouldn't be allowed to vote.
- arethuza 15y agoThat's what I meant - nobody gets confused with what we have at the moment even though the ballot papers are huge and the regional seats are selected using PR.
- innes 15y agoWell, OK. It's two 'X' ballots compared to one 1..n ballot. You could argue each way which is more complicated. And I agree that neither is sufficiently complicated to disqualify it. What I would say is that the mechanics of AV are more (pseudo?)non-deterministic than the Scottish Parliament system of PR. With PR - seats mirror votes more or less. With AV, nobody really seems to know how things will turn out, and even less representative massive majorities can occur. So in a way AV is more complicated in that sense. I'm still wondering why I voted for it to be honest.
