Dual-member mixed proportional representation and Electoral Reform in Prince Edward Island
The report of the Special Committee on Democratic Renewal in Prince Edward Island contains only a very general definition for dual-member mixed proportional representation (two seats per district; one seat goes the plurality winner; the other seat is used to achieve a proportional result on the province level). But this Wikipedia article contains a very detailed description.

Suppose the Islanders vote for dual-member mixed proportional representation in the referendum in November 2016. Do they vote for the general definition? Or do they vote for the concrete proposal by Sean Graham? Markus Schulze 17:06, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Good question Markus. Elections PEI is yet to publish their educational materials for the plebiscite (which are in production), so I don't have a sharable link for this yet, but from my meetings with them, it is indeed the concrete proposal by Sean Graham that would be introduced, with 14 districts (so 28 MLAs, compared to the current 27), should DMP win the November plebiscite. I'll add the link to the article once those materials from Elections PEI are published. AnnaCK (talk) 14:46, 24 June 2016 (UTC)

Merge parts into Biproportional Representation
Parts of this article should be split off and moved into biproportional apportionment (the more common term for this system). –Maximum Limelihood Estimator 03:52, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
