The election was a minor party bloodbath, so has MMP done its dash? Q+A "Every minor party got hammered," ACT leader David Seymour says. This year's election spelled the lowest representation for minor parties in Parliament since MMP was introduced in 1996. If MMP is not working, is it possible to get rid of the threshold to increase minor party representation? Perhaps a new system like no-threshold MMP or Australian-style IRV would bolster the minor party voting.
