Hello Blogging world! In 1996, New Zealand adopted the MMP voting system. In September 2017 we had a national election. Only people the age of 18 and over were able to vote, the vote was so close and in the end. 3 different political parties came together and made their own government. It was called a ‘coalition government’ because it includes different people from different political parties. For this activity we had to imagine that we were in a coalition government with 2 other people. We had to choose 2 other people and say why is that your decision? Here is mine.
I would form a coalition with my friend Lily and my other friend Ashana. I chose Lily because she is very smart and she knows a lot of digital and coding stuff, she also is very funny and talkative. I also chose Ashana because she is good at problem solving, she is very helpful and kind.
Do you like my reasons? Well, who would you choose tell me in the comments! I hope you have enjoyed this blog post and learnt more about voting if you would like to know more about the MMP voting system click here! Bye! Bye! Blogging world!
