End to Districts Amendment [Passed/Sent to Regions]

[Small Business Owner of Any Repute]

So, I'm confused.  This bill seems to eliminate districts, but what does it replace them with?

I understand Moderate and Earl's point and I agree with Lewis that this is the appropriate venue for that discussion.

On that matter, I would have no difficulty with either Peter's or Lewis's possible amendments or indeed one which is very specific in stating something such as:
"...Class B, which shall comprise Senators elected via proportional representation by means of single transferable vote."

I'd be fine with that new wording.  I don't think the absolute specifics need to be in the constitution, but if the ultimate goal is to change to a PR-STV system, let's lock that in.

I'm not sure why we need to vote on this amendment first when the second amendment will wipe out its wording, but...

Aye.

[Small Business Owner of Any Repute]

On behalf of District 2, aye.

[Small Business Owner of Any Repute]

This is certainly the version that I prefer.

Aye.

[Small Business Owner of Any Repute]

Nay.

[Small Business Owner of Any Repute]

Aye.

[Small Business Owner of Any Repute]
