BC-STV rejected by BC

I find it difficult to believe that BC-STV didn’t pass, especially considering preliminary polling showed a 65% support for it. Still, it’s not happening and it likely won’t for a long time. So these results? The skewing of seats won to popular vote? Yeah, get used to it.

Party	Popular vote	Seats won
Liberal	46.0%	57.6%
NDP	42.0%	42.3%
Green	8.1%	0.0%
Conservative	2.1%	0.0%

I get that proportional voting isn’t to the majority’s liking; The leading party will always stand to lose the most in any form of proportional representation. With a requirement for 60% support, it’s unlikely we’ll ever move away from FPTP. Frustration.
