Supplementary vote
  1. How it works
    1. Used to elect a single person ie a major or a president
      1. The voter gets two votes, a first and then a second/supplementary.

        2. Where it is used
          1. The London mayoral elections
          2. Advantages
            1. It is simpler than AV, so would be easier for voters to understand and use
              1. The candidate is likely to have over 50%
                1. The focus on gaining second preferences means that conciliatory campaigning is encouraged. There is a more to consensus
                2. Disadvantages
                  1. Candidate does not need to have 50% to win so lacks the mandate unlike AV
                    1. Some people find the ballot paper confusing. Spoilt West Midlands PCC ballot papers 2016
                      1. Favours the larger parties the 2nd choice usually is between labour and the conservatives
                        1. Could make all the parties too similar
