HALIFAX (March 14, 2012): The preferential voting system being used for advance voting in the New Democrat leadership election allows voters to rank the candidates in order of preference. In each round of voting, the candidate with the fewest votes drops off the ballot and the votes of the people who voted for that candidate are redistributed to their next highest-ranked candidates. This process continues until a candidate gets over 50% of the votes. This same voting system is used for state and federal elections in Australia, and it is standard practice there for candidates to make recommendations to their supporters on second and subsequent choices.

Singh continuing to bring in new members
As the race for the leadership of the NDP continues, Martin Singh is pleased to announce that he and his team have added over 6000 new memberships to the NDP party. These memberships come from all over the country and represent the connection that Martin has made with Canadians. “Canadians are telling us what they believe in, what they want to see, and firmly believe that my priorities are in line with theirs. I’m very excited to see that approximately 25% of all new memberships to the party have been brought in by my campaign.”
