Alternative Vote and the Labour Party

Guardian: Reports that the Labour Party will not Campaign in 2011 for a YES vote in the AV Referendum. This will be an interesting process to watch folks, you will have the Conservative Party that will oppose the change in the voting system, they Labour Party will be split and the only Party that will be 100% behind the move will be the Liberal Democrats who in the last poll had about 9% support. As the Referendum will be held on the same day as the elections in Scotland, Wales ( in Wales the voters will also have a choice if the Welsh Assembly should have more power ) and also Council Elections, one can postulate that the voter will be confused and very annoyed that it has to makes so many decisions, in other words as of now the Liberal Democrats could find themselves very disappointed if the result is a NO.
