1 man 1 vote Election Bill passes Somali Senate, awaiting signing into Law

[kickz]

Upper House today endorsed the Elections Bill after lengthy debates which saw Parliament drop an election formula proposed by the National Independent Electoral Commission.

The Commission had proposed the Closed-List option under the Proportional Representation system.
Following public consultations by a Lower House elections ad-hoc committee late last year, the House adopted the First-Past-The-Post or Majoritarian Model.

The First-Past-The-Post election model is similar to one used in parts of Canada.

This is major

This has been delayed for far to long and I'm so happy it finally passed.
Once it's signed the executive branch will be legally obliged to ensure the people have a vote

The question is how they divide seats. The people of mudug/galgaduud and Raxanweeynta were underrepresented in the 60s system unherited from pro Cismaan Maxamuud Italians
