About
Research Advancement : In 2018,The Center for Election Science(CES)sponsored a symposium on proportional representation in British Columbia, Canada. This symposium brought together researchers and electoral system experts from around Canada to create a set of recommendations for the British Columbia government in their pursuit of implementing proporational representation. CES also worked with researchers from the Paris School of Ecomomics to analyze data and write an academic paper on the results of a nationwide polling study that tested how voters would have voted differently in the 2016 election had they been able to use approval voting.
