No no, I was asking about the differences between Single Transferable Vote and STAR - not RCV/IRV.
RCV is the single winner version of STV.
Every single fault of RCV is present in STV, but because it's a multi-winner format, the complexity and lack of transparency in the counting process are far worse.
If you really want proportional or multi-winner elections, then a better option is this.
It's based off of Score the same way that STAR is, but tweaked to be multi-winner.
Ah, okay - thanks for the explanation.
I do like the idea of multi-winner elections because of the increased chance of having a representative for your specific issues taken to a national assembly. In the UK things are split up into boroughs, which seems illogical for cities and aside from being grandfathered in likely only persists because it enables gerrymandering.
