This work draws mainly from papers and an article written by Politician and Economist Brendan Halligan on Ireland’s Single Transferable Vote system (STV), spanning some 30 years. Each chapter examines how the Irish system of Proportional Representation (PR), the Single Transferable Vote, is riddled with defects and is the main cause of a dysfunctional political system. Reform of the Irish political system, and of the electoral system in particular, has been a life-long preoccupation for the author.
