| this may seems silly but after an election it is theoreticly possible for a bill to get voted 50/50 on because we have 500 seats in Parliament. 499 is an odd number, this will never happen with 499 seats. |

| Message | I'm for Big Government, so I don't want the seat numbers reduced. 505 is fine, or leave it how it is. Whichever... |

| Message | i picked 505 over 501 cuz its more palindromic... it really doesnt change anything politically though. |

| Message | If seats were being increased I would vote yes. This legislation makes no sense. Our country is GROWING so we REDUCE the number of seats? So our citizens will have even less luck letting thier views be known to people in power? Did you all have some wacko drug party and not let me know? Besides 50/50 (which never comes up anyway) allows for some multi-partisanship to occur instead of constant lines in the sand. |
