No to AV.

Have not voted Blue or Red .. just our local Independent. Ok, he's a bit of a divvy, but know he cares about our little community.

Proportional voting is a great idea, one whose time has not yet arrived.

Polling stations open until 2200 hrs, so some time after that, with possibly early guesstimates around the witching hour. :)
