[fvc-wat-disc] Conservative riding nomination

[Rick Fairman]

Hello Paul

With the exception of Kim Campbell's PC's in 1995 (or thereabouts) 
federally, I don't know of any other examples when FPTP was not advantageous 
to the Libs or the Cons (perhaps in B.C.?).  It seems to me, it serves their 
electoral interests rather well--- giving them more than they deserve almost 
always.  I am very interested to know why you say that FPTP does not serve 
them well.

Peace
Rick
