First past the post is out of date

First past the post in an out of date voting system. Modern elections require that the voter is able to get appropriate representation without voting tactically. Tactical voting is indicative of an old-fashioned system of elections. A modern system would enable people to vote for a party that broadly (and narrowly) reflects their interests and concerns. If there is more choice this means people are more likely to be able to get what they want.
