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

Went to school with a Ronnie Webster ... think I was vaguely related to him ....

By the way, when will the results start coming in?

DaveinGermany · 05-05-2011, 18:47

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