Mr. Reid, you're refusing to hold town hall meetings on electoral reform because you don't want to "validate" an "inadequate" consultation process. Fair enough -- but just holding a referendum (which seems to be
your only other idea) appears to be an even less adequate process, with a dismal record of failure. Maybe if you held the town hall meetings (or improvement thereupon?) as you're supposed to, you'd be able to promote the idea of holding a referendum as well. Your constituents would certainly be better informed. Face it, Scott -- your party got sent to the penalty box in the last election. So please stop grandstanding, and co-operate with the work of the multi-party committee to which you've been appointed. As it stands, you're making an arguably flawed process worse.
