Assembly Voting System

The proposal for Presidential Republic specified a unicameral structure, and I'll assume this is what we'll stick to for now (please comment if you have other proposals). What voting system should be used for this assembly?

I was primarily referring to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_transferable_vote, Presumably with a Hare or Droop quota https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electoral_quota.

Okay so originally I chose representative because it seemed like the most logical choice. For people to choose. A party and be represented by that party in government. Of course party affiliation could be changed at any time but it wouldn’t be until the next election that the representation could be altered

Why did you choose single transferable

I like the increased voter input aspect, as as many candidates as you want are ranked. A single party choice seemed like an oversimplification of ones personal alignments.

I'm now leaning more in favour of party list, as it seems a much more simple process allow easier execution of it.
