Fairshare has moved the campaign for voting reform out from party meetings and gatherings of
political hacks, and into the communities of Scotland, with three extremely eye-catching postcards.
These postcards have been distributed to pubs, bars, libraries and other community facilities across
Scotland.

The Scottish Parliament is currently considering proposals to change the way we elect our councillors in Scotland.
FAIRSHARE supports these recommendations as an essential step to strengthen local democracy.
But why do we want change? Here we explain the problems caused by the present voting system, how the new voting system would work and
how it would make councillors more accountable to local electors.
