Yes, I think there are definite benefits to a more proportional system. When I spoke with young people and did some focus groups, one of the major concerns that they mentioned, whether they really meant it or whether they were just saying it, is that they felt that their vote didn't count because a lot of votes were lost. I definitely think it's a concern, and a more proportional system would probably encourage some people to participate.
