I had thought of something like this some time ago, particularly when I was discussing the change from us voting for two people in Parliament to us voting for just one person, and it was somewhat tongue-in-cheek, but Fred Barritt of the Bermuda Sun threw it into writing today.
Wouldn't that be interesting? Everybody votes for their preferred 36 people. It sure would be interesting to see how the final scores would tally up.
One obvious issue that may come about is that you'd end up with all kinds of splits in Government, decisions may get held back more because you may not get a clear majority of supporters and there's the chance (small, but possible) that a third party or set of independents could become critical swing votes in Parliamentary motions.
Curious, indeed.
