VANCOUVER, B.C. — The B.C. Green party says the province should try electronic voting to help boost voter turnout and take another crack at proportional representation in the legislature.
They are two of the suggestions the Greens are making to modernize the province's voting system after last year's provincial election in which only 51 per cent of eligible voters bothered to cast their ballots.
...
In addition, the Greens want to reopen the debate on changing B.C.'s voting system with a two-stage referendum process.
The first referendum would ask if people want some form of proportional representation in the legislature, and if that passes, more hearings would be held leading to a second vote on what kind of system to adopt.
