Meh to AV (my version)
19 April 2011
This post just collates a handful of my tweets on AV, for those who missed them earlier today:
Please, anybody who intends to vote #no2av, do it because you understand both systems and believe FPTP is better. No other reason. #yes2av—

Not caring is NOT a reason to vote #no2av. It would be better for you to spoil your paper, and allow those who do care to decide. #yes2av—

Not understanding the question is not a reason to vote #no2av. If you cannot make an informed decision, then spoil your paper. #yes2av—

Preferring STV is not a reason to vote #no2av, as STV is not an option. Choose between the two boxes on the paper, or spoil it. #yes2av—

I understand that the wording of the question is misleading. To make this clear: neither a #yes2av nor a #no2av result means further reform.—

Being misled by either side is not a reason to vote #no2av. If you don't want to find out the facts, spoil your paper. #yes2av—

I am not being facetious. A large number of spoilt papers will send a message to those who are paying attention. #yes2av #no2av—

I believe that #yes2av is the right choice. But I am trying to make it clear that there is a third option when you cast your vote. #no2av—

Your voting options are: #yes2av, #no2av, or draw a big cock on the paper. Please do the third if you're unsure.—

If you are unsure what AV is, I would encourage you to read my previous article on the subject. A number of people say that they found it helpful.
