  • Proposal for Regional Members at Large

    Proposal for Regional Members at Large

    PROPOSAL FOR REGIONAL MEMBERS AT LARGE Contents 1 Proposal 1 2 Suggested Ballot 2 3 Regions Defined 3 4 Election Results 2001, 1996, and 1991 6 Under This Proposal 5 Actual Election Results 2001, 1996 and 1991 9 By Region. R.M. Giza Sechelt, B.C. 1 R. M. Giza Sechelt, B.C. PROPOSAL This proposal is a system for adding regionally-based seats to the legislature in addition to the normally elected members. This is a minimalist change which still alleviates the problems which have plagued our system - no effective opposition, no representation for parties with a significant vote percentage; and anomalies like /96 where a majority government was achieved with a lower popular vote than the second party. This system recognizes the unique regions of this Province and allows ‘Members at Large’ to be elected to represent their region and party where otherwise regional perspectives would be under-represented. Five regions are suggested North, Interior, Island, Vancouver, Fraser. All candidates would have two ways of being elected - greatest number of votes in the riding as normal or as a Regional ‘Member at Large’ (M@L). An M@L seat is won if a candidate or party attains a given threshold percentage of tallied votes in the Region. A party without a candidate in a riding would still have the party name on the ballot with the designation M@L. Independent candidate names would also appear on all ballots within the Region - not only in their home riding (again the designation M@L would appear with the name in a non-home riding).
