Yes, and that's why I prefer FPTP for candidate vote in MMPR ... each voter
gets 2 votes, one for candidate and one for party ... BUT the candidate
vote counts for the party of the candidate's party EVEN IF THE CANDIDATE
LOSES ... this allows a voter to vote for a candidate of a different party
than the voter's chosen party ... it also means that if a voter's candidate
loses in the riding, the voter still has both votes counted.
