qatsi | Not voting

Here there were only elections for the Police and Crime Commissioner. It's a post I don't believe in (or, at least, I don't believe it should be the subject of a direct election - why not elect regional Health Commissioners for example, by the same argument - surely our local elected representatives could come to a consensus over an appointment on merit) so I didn't want to dignify the process by adding to the turnout, even if to spoil my vote.

I'd like better democracy, which is not necessarily the same thing as more democracy.
