Direct democracy

Currently, Representative Democracy means electing representatives, where:
  • You legally abdicate your responsibility to make any more political decisions.
  • You legally assign all decision making power to the political representative of your choice.
  • Consequently, you legally dis-empower yourself from effectively participating in any local political choices.
Consider the alternative: Direct Democracy
 
  • Where you select a political delegate who will represent NOT his or her choices, but the voter’s choices.
  • The public consensus can be easily measured on a non-profit, non partisan, perpetual, secure polling system, managed by citizens’ committees and/or BC Elections.
