Dear Canadian Voter, I have voted a bizillion times but never under our current state of affairs. I live in a very strong NDP riding and I believe that the NDP candidate will continue to represent us in Parliament. Here is where I bring up vote splitting. It would make no sense to run a Liberal candidate in our riding. We must keep the Conservatives from forming our next government. I propose that Liberal and NDP work together to support whichever candidate has the best chance of winning against the Conservative across the land. #cdnpoli #votesplitting

Very interesting piece by George #Monbiot on a mitigation attempt of #FPTP and #votesplitting in the #UK: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/jul/26/totnes-election-democracy-change

Where I wonder where it might fail, in this form, is how much engagement you require - how many meetings are people going to attend? Will there be a non-in-person way to participate? Just overall, nudging-think - are organizers thinking about making it *easy* to do what they believe is the right thing?

We’ve had almost 99 years of Tory rule in Totnes. Here’s how we plan to get rid of them

By uniting behind one progressive parliamentary candidate, voters in Totnes can effect change, says George Monbiot
