Default Re: France\'s Election is Today

It is quite democratic, but to make it really democratic I think they would need to add a 3rd round somehow. Reaching the 2nd round is a bit too dependant upon not having similar candidates contesting you.

I'm a big fan of being able to cast votes for more than one candidate.

I guess theoretically you could put i.e. 1,2 & 3 and just computerize the whole elimination process and end up with a president after 1st round.

How about casting more than vote for a single candidate?
