Equal Expandable Vote (EEV) is a voting system adaptable to single or multiple winner (proportional) elections. It is generally similar to Instant Runoff Voting (IRV) and Single Transferable Vote (STV), but eliminates the erratic results produced by the elimination steps in those methods.

All kinds of personal stuff -- sickness, work issues, etc. -- intervened. So, over a month with no posts. Bad, bad, bad. "Just Another Guy With A Keyboard...who doesn't use it for anything"! Seriously, though, I'm going to try one more time to get this going. This time, there's a theme: Policy Ideas. We're going to start for now (today? this week? who knows?) with the specific area of "

Obviously, its been somewhat erratic so far. Starting now, I'm going to try to post 2-3 posts a week. Maybe more until that premature Howard Dean post gets off the front page. :)

Spurred largely by the recent decision of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court which would compel the State of Massachusetts to recognize marriage between members of the same sex on the same basis as between members of opposite sexes, conservative groups have begun pushing hard for what they refer to as the "Federal Marriage Amendment" -- an amendment to the federal constitution designed,

As you may have heard, President Bush has proposed a new "guest worker" program -- well, concept really, but we'll get to that in a second -- under which currently illegal aliens and future prospective immigrants would be able to get visas to work in this country for a limited period of time provided that they had employer sponsorship. Its been discussed in other blogs, such as: Calpundit
