Keep Voting Simple

"In 2016, voters were given five choices, but this time it will simply be a chance to vote "yes" or "no" to the question "Should Prince Edward Island change its voting system to a mixed member proportional voting system?"

A "No" vote would see no change in the way members are chosen for the 27 seats in the legislature, while a "yes" vote would see 18 members chosen in redrawn electoral districts and nine others chosen in province-wide ballots."

The NAACP in Memphis is against IRV (Ranked Ballots) stating, "After reviewing information and listening to presentations from supporters and those against IRV, we have determined it is not in the best interest of a city, which is majority people of color, to implement this new voting concept."
