How Healthy Is Our Electoral System?

Every three years we get the opportunity to tell our politicians what we think about them. It’s called "the electoral cycle" and it delivers results wrapped in detailed analysis and presented with media controversy.

But, are we, the voters, well-informed? Is the labelling on the electoral offerings accurate? Given that not every wish can be responded to, are policy outcomes fair?

In the 200th edition of IN CONVERSATION WITH NOEL CHEER on Triangle/Stratos Television, Associate Professor Raymond Miller of the Department of Political Studies at the University of Auckland provides some of the answers.
