50 Talking Ballots with Adrian Kavanagh
14 July - 55 minsThis week I’m joined by another returnee to the function Room, a lecturer at the Maynooth University Department of Geography and we’re talking about voting systems and the numbers they generate. We catch an STV, - single transferrable vote, FPTP -first past the post and the second chance of the French system.
We find out why Eurovision is a giant democratic experiment and ultimately why a vote in Ireland goes on an adventure.
