I'm planning on handing the following to my presumptive state assembly-member at a little meet & greet event on wednesday.

I aim to define several election systems so that any of them may be used in elections in California. I want to leave open the choice between several systems because the tradeoffs between theory and practicality will not be clear untill all have been tried. The law should be stated that the elections official in charge (secretary of state, etc) shall be able to choose the method that seems to fit the demands of technology, culture and theoretical virtue of the various systems.
