Rejected petition: Change the First Past The Post voting system to a Ranked Choice system
Rejected on
The First Past The Post voting system should be scrapped, and constituencies should instead use a Ranked Choice Voting system in local and general elections
First Past The Post is hugely unrepresentative, and other democracies worldwide make the UK look very undemocratic. A Ranked Choice Voting system would allow true representation of the people, and allow MPs to see what their constituents really want.
