I don't know enough about the American electoral system to say whether or not they should go for propotional representation but I do know that in Ontario and the rest of Canada it would a welcome change.
The Green Party on Ontario received 8% of the vote... a huge incease over their previous (I believe) 2%. They didn't win any seats. Should the 8% of the populace that vote Green not have any say?
I think it is definately time for a change. A diversity of voices are required rather than the staid system we currently have.
