IMPROVED VOTING PAPERS
Sir-I think each voting paper should make provision for the voter to register the fact that he could not vote for any of the candidates, and that the number of these votes given in each electorate should be published. It would not do much for the voter, but it might have a restraining influence on the successful candidate if he had a certain percentage, of these votes in his electorate. And think of the handle for other members criticising him: "Why, 20 per cent of your constituents preferred to forgo their votes rather than vote for
youl"
