Keen Eyes
I sometimes get a bit (over?) excited writing about STV, so here are a couple of good examples of people who stay calm and lay out a pretty convincing case for STV.

Declan, I just received your message from my blog Not Sugar Coated BC. I think you can move me up to the Pro STV section after reading my latest post. In retrospect, there are thousands of systems that would help us move forward in our democracy, STV seems to be the flavour of the moment. Don't get me wrong, STV is a huge improvement over the first past the post system, yet we will always slowly evolve, hopefully becoming more democratic. Anyways, feel free to checkout Not Sugar Coated BC @ http://notsugarcoatedbc.blogspot.com/ I usually have some pretty interesting articles up there.
