'Indi in the Wired' has just published a very detailed blog entry on
ze's ideal electoral system:

http://blog.indi.frih.net/2015/07/my-ideal-for-a-reformed-electoral-system/

> MMP is sort of a hybrid between party list proportional 
> representation and our current system (non-proportional, 
> single-winner-per-district). Or another way of looking at is to 
> start with our current system, and then extend that with a party
> list to get proportionality.

> MMP maps perfectly to what we are really doing when we vote in 
> Canada.


Spoiler alert: Indi proposes MMP with Alternative Vote on the regional
side, and closed lists on the party side.

Worth a read, and worth a comment (or two).
