[fvc-wat-disc] The Experts Discuss AV vs. PR

[Dave Arthur]

Hi Sharon 
Unfortunately we need to get up to Meaford today.
I would like to hear how the event goes, especially what advantages are given about AV.
I clearly gives a huge advantage to the centrist party and does almost nothing for parties like the Greens.
I have my meeting with Bardish set for the 29th.
I’ve got 15 minutes.
I think I’m going to tell my stories rather than go over the reasons for PR which she will have heard many times.
Do you remember if Justin made the comment before the election about PR that “losers don’t deserve a prize”?
